Abstract

Objective: To describe a case of bilateral titled optics discs with posterior staphyloma in non-myopic eyes.

Results: This was a 66-year-old woman with a history of metabolic syndrome presented to the ophthalmology clinic for a bilateral painless visual impairment evolving gradually for the last three months. Clinical examination revealed a bilateral astigmatism in both eyes: -0.75 at 93 degree on right eye and at 64 degree on left eye. The best corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. The examination of the anterior segment was normal. The fundus examination noted an inferonasal titled optic discs associated with staphyloma. An orbito-cerebral magnetic resonance imaging was performed to document the staphyloma and exclude an optic disc hypoplasia. The MRI confirmed the bilateral eyeballs staphyloma without any other issue.
