| Lymphocytic Leukemia, Optic Nerve and Juxtapapillary Retina | |
| The optic nerve is heavily swollen and no longer definable. Instead, one sees infiltration of the adjacent retina and more peripherally ensheathed blood vessels. The veins are enlarged and there are multiple intraretinal hemorrhages. This is the eye of a young adult under treatment for the lymphocytic leukemia. | |
