Congenital Tilted Disk Syndrome
Congenital Tilted Disk Syndrome
General: Defective closure of embryonic cleft; disk appears tilted downward and nasal; affects both sexes; central vision is not affected; field defect improves with myopic correction.
Ocular: Myopia; astigmatism; coloboma; situs inversus; posterior inferonasal staphyloma; superotemporal, bitemporal, or superior altitudinal visual field defects; inferior fundus pallor; central retinal vein occlusion; hypoplastic retina and choroid; macular choroidal neovascularization.
Clinical: None.
