Streszczenie

Abstract: Optic nerve drusen (OND) are calcified deposits in the optic nerve head. Though often asymptomatic, they can compress small blood vessels, disrupting local blood flow and potentially damaging nerve fibers, which may lead to visual loss. Regular monitoring of the patients is recommended in which multimodal imaging helps.
Our study presents the diagnostic possibilities of multimodal imaging to illustrate pathology observed in OND and summarize clinical data about these methods.
