  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 62-year-old male presented with bilateral edema of the optic disc. He had been under treat-ment for diabetes during the foregoing 12 years. He manifested simple retinopathy with normal visual acuity. The optic disc in the right eye appeared markedly hyperemic and swollen. Visual field defect was present inferonasally. The optic disc in the left eye showed minimal localized edema. The visual field was intact. These clinical pictures werecompatible with diabetic papillopathy.

Two months later, the disc edema in the left eye progressed with visual loss and central scotoma. Systemic corticosteroid therapy was followed by improvement in fundus findings and visual acuity. Retrospectively, this case was diagnosed as bilat-eral anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) preceded by asymptomatic disc edema. Diabetic papillopathy seemed to share a common path-ogenesis with AION.
