TI  - Acute Unilateral Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy Secondary to Optic Nerve Head 
      Drusen: Report of a Rare Coexistence.

AB  - A 45-year-old white male noticed on awakening the painless loss of inferior 
      vision in the left eye 2 days ago. He was otherwise well and his medical history 
      was unremarkable. Visual acuity was 20/20 in OD and 20/32 in OS with a left 
      inferior altitudinal defect and right blind spot enlargement demonstrable on 
      visual field test. On fundus examination, both disc margins were blurred and the 
      left disc was diffusely oedematous, with linear haemorrhages in the adjacent 
      nerve fibre layer. Radiologic imaging and laboratory tests were unremarkable. 
      Bilateral optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) was demonstrated by optical coherence 
      tomography and fundus autofluorescence imaging. Unilateral acute non-arteritic 
      anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and concomitant bilateral ONHD were 
      diagnosed. NAION may develop secondary to ONHD. Therefore, clinicians should be 
      aware of this rare association and inform the patients about this risk. Patients 
      with ONHD should be followed-up periodically in terms of possible ischemic 
      complications.
