Ocular Hypotony, Optic Disc Swelling

Ocular Hypotony, Optic Disc Swelling
Both the optic disc and the adjacent retina are elevated in this patient, although the normal margins of the disc can still be visualized through the elevated neural tissue. Note the complex pattern of intersecting, curvilinear choroidal and retinal folds in the macular region. This patient with osteogenesis imperfecta sustained trauma to his left eye which left him with chronic hypotony.
