Background Optic disc anomalies with abnormal tissue on the disc surface includes, myelinated nerve fiber, optic disc drusen, and Bergmeister papillae. Imaging the radial peripapillary capillary (RPC) network in optic disc anomalies with optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA) can give information on the RPC network in these conditions. Purpose This video describes the OCTA of optic nerve head and RPC network using the angio disc mode in cases of optic disc anomalies with abnormal tissue on the disc surface. Synopsis This video presents characteristic features of RPC network in one eye each of myelinated nerve fiber, optic disc drusen, and Bergmeister papillae. Highlights OCTA in optic disc anomalies with abnormal tissue on the disc surface show a dense RPC microvascular network. OCTA is an effective imaging modality to study vascular plexus/RPC and their alteration in these disc anomalies. Video link https://youtu.be/zlflgijy56c.
