Compressive Optic Neuropathy; Melanocytoma | |
A large, spherical, charcoal-colored mass is situated in front of the left optic disc, obscuring most of the disc substance. Inferiorly, a crescent of visible disc appears chronically swollen. Surrounding both the superior aspect of the primary lesion and the superior disc is a discrete subretinal apron of gray pigment. This is the characteristic appearance of an optic disc melanocytoma. | |
