A Photo Essay on Morning Glory Disc Maculopathy

Morning glory disc (MGD) anomaly is a rare optic disc malformation which is almost always unilateral and often associated with poor visual function. The physiologic cup is replaced by a funnel-shaped depression with overlying core of glial tissue and a juxtapapillary pigmented annulus resembling morning glory flower. We report the case of a 17-year-old male presenting with a MGD maculopathy and its associated characteristics.

Abstract

Morning glory disc (MGD) anomaly is a rare optic disc malformation which is almost always unilateral and often associated with poor visual function. The physiologic cup is replaced by a funnel-shaped depression with overlying core of glial tissue and a juxtapapillary pigmented annulus resembling morning glory flower. We report the case of a 17-year-old male presenting with a MGD maculopathy and its associated characteristics.
