Figure

  • Fig. 1 (A) Fundus photograph shows yellowish amorphous material around the optic disc. (B) Fluorescein angiography shows hyperfluorescent staining around the optic disc. (C) Spectral-domain optical coherence tomographic scan (Spectralis OCT; Heidelberg engineering, Heidelberg, Germany) showing hyper-reflective retinal masses (optic disc drusen, arrows) with irregular internal reflectance and posterior shadowing.
