Figure 1
Bilateral diabetic papillopathy. (a) Fundus photo of the right eye showing an edematous and hyperaemic optic disc. Note the peripapillary circumferential retinal striae extending towards the macula signifying subretinal fluid secondary to leakage from the disc. (b) Concurrent fundus photo of the left eye. Significant disc edema is also present. Note the relative pallor of this optic disc compared to that of the right eye suggesting permanent optic nerve damage and chronicity.
