Idiopathic isolated optic nerve head swelling a presentation of two cases

Optic nerve head swelling is caused by either ocular or systemic diseases of inflammatory, infective, infiltrative, compressive, or ischemic origin. Uncommonly, an isolated optic nerve head swelling without the above underlying mechanisms might also occur. Two patients presented with unilateral, isolated optic nerve head swelling. A detailed oculoneurological examination and a series of investigations failed to indicate any pathology. No probable cause for optic nerve head swelling in these patients was determined by the authors. the authors have stated that they do not have a significant financial interest or other relationship with any product manufacturer or privider of services discussed in this article. The authors also do not discuss the use of off-label products, which include unlabeled, unapproved, or investigative products or devices.
