Optical nerve drusen are a congenital disorder of the optic nerve that can be seen on a dilated eye exam. They are seen as one or more raised areas on the optic nerve head that are composed of bundles of glial tissue. They commonly have no effect on the visual function, but can occasionally be responsible for an increased blind spot. However, this is usually only seen with a visual field exam in an eye doctor's office.

What is asymmetry in your optical nerve mean?
Asymmetry in the optical nerve typically refers to differences in the size, shape, or appearance of the optic nerves between the two eyes. This asymmetry can be a normal variant, but it may also indicate underlying conditions such as optic nerve atrophy, glaucoma, or other neurological issues. A thorough examination by an eye care professional is essential to determine the significance of this finding and any necessary follow-up.

What is drusen of the eye?
Drusen are small yellow or white deposits that form between the retina and the underlying retinal pigment epithelium in the eye. They are often associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. While drusen themselves may not cause vision problems, their presence can indicate an increased risk of developing AMD and can affect visual acuity over time. Regular eye examinations are important for monitoring drusen and overall eye health.
