Abstract

Aplasia of the optic nerve is an extraordinarily rare congenital anomaly that affects one or both optic nerves associated with the absence of the central retinal vessel and ganglion cells. We present a case of unilateral optic nerve aplasia in a 37 weeks old neonate . On examination , the child had microcornea and unilateral optic nerve aplasia.
