TI  - Optic nerve head drusen simulating a bitemporal hemianopia.
PG  - 47-9
AB  - A 70-year-old man right eye over 5 weeks. He was found clinically to have a 
      bitemporal hemianopia and bilateral disc edema. Testing revealed optic nerve head 
      drusen (ONHD) bilaterally causing enlarged blind spots (pseudo-bitemporal 
      hemianopia). This case illustrates that ONHD should be listed in the differential 
      diagnosis for bitemporal hemianopia when brain imaging is normal.
