“…For bilateral ODS, the majority of the cases were from NA-AION which is in contrast to other studies such as Urfalioglu et al [14], Iijima et al [15], and Abbas et al [16], who reported papilledema as the most common cause of bilateral ODS. In our study, only four cases of papilledema were diagnosed in our clinic.…”

“…A study in Turkey also shared similar observations as ours, with a preponderance of unilateral ODS due to ON (48.6%), followed by NA-AION (20%), with a mean age of 40.3 and 64.86 years, respectively. Other unilateral ODS etiologies include retinal vein occlusions, optic disc drusen, sarcoidosis, and idiopathic causes [ 9 ].…”

“…The majority of their bilateral ODS patients are female (55.37%), with an average age of 38.2 years [ 10 ]. Urfalioglu et al reported, in Turkey, only 4.61% and 3.08% had bilateral ODS due to hypertensive retinopathy and diabetic papillitis, respectively [ 9 ]. Their study showed a mean age of 34.2 years with a strong predilection toward females (86.15%).…”

“…Unilateral optic disc swelling is a pathological condition with various causes [1]. It is observed in conditions such as papillitis, acute non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, retinal vein occlusion, trauma, iatrogenic conditions, systemic disease, or any infection or inflammation of the contiguous sinus or orbit [2][3][4][5][6]. Whipple disease [7], mechanical compression of the optic nerve by the adjacent paranasal sinus [8], bacterial sphenoidal sinusitis [9], sinus mucocele [10], drugs [11], unilateral papilledema [12], metastatic carcinoma [13], viral meningitis [14], cerebral arteriovenous malformation [15], and cerebral sinus venous thrombosis [16] are among the reported causes of this condition.…”

“…Unilateral optic disc edema can be associated with symptoms and signs, such as headache, progressive or sudden vision loss, diplopia, optic disc swelling, enlargement of the blind spot, a relative afferent pupillary defect, decreased color vision, and enlargement of the blind spot [4,8,13,17,18], or it could be asymptomatic [7,19]. A delay in diagnosis is not uncommon [20] because vision loss is insidious and clinical findings can be missed.…”
