  • Title: Hemorrhage Within the Optic Nerve From a Cavernous Hemangioma of the Optic Disc.
    Author: Grob SR, Campbell AA, Gross A, Cestari DM.
    Journal: J Neuroophthalmol; 2015 Sep; 35(3):277-9. PubMed ID: 26132965.
    Abstract:
    A 49-year-old woman with a known right optic disc cavernous hemangioma experienced pain with eye movements and worsening of a superior visual field defect. While she retained 20/20 visual acuity in each eye, findings on magnetic resonance imaging were consistent with a hemorrhage in the anterior portion of the right intraorbital optic nerve. Her visual function stabilized spontaneously. We are unaware of previous reports of hemorrhage into the optic nerve from a cavernous hemangioma of the optic disc.
