Three Dimensional Evaluation of Posterior Pole and Optic Nerve Head in Tilted Disc
Abstract For over a century, tilted disc syndrome (TDS) has been defined vaguely. The lack of consensus of the terminology arises from the lack of understanding of the pathogenesis of this condition. Also, myopic discs with temporal crescents or peripapillary atrophy (PPA) are histologically indisti...
