  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 24-year-old male had been diagnosed, at the age of 11 years, as Engelmann disease, or progressive diaphyseal dyslasia. Bilateral optic disc edema was detected when he recently sought medical advice for ocular itchiness and epiphora. Computerized tomography showed cranial hyperostosis and narrowing of the optic canal. Additional perimetric findings led to the diagnosis of optic neuropathy. Systemic corticosteroid induced improve-ment in the visual field. This case illustrates that systemic corticosteroid may be effective for optic neuropathy in this disease.
