Bilateral optic disc neovascularization in association with retinitis pigmentosa.

K W To1, A J Nadel, S H Perlstein, S Margolis.   

Abstract

Bilateral neovascularization of the optic disc developed in a 16-year-old Hispanic girl with retinitis pigmentosa. The neovascularization regressed in both eyes over 1 year without treatment. Ocular and systemic evaluation failed to reveal a recognized cause for the neovascularization. To our knowledge this is only the third case reported of this unusual association.
