Patient demographics, vision, ocular examination findings, and optic disc photographs for disc diameter: macula distance (DD: DM), size of the disc, and double ring size along with MRI were analyzed by a single observer. The disc to macula ratio was used to grade ONH as &lt;3 as partial\/mild ONH, 3.12\u20134 as complete ONH, and &gt;4.12 severe ONH.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mean age at presentation was 11.38 (\u00b18.87) years. The best corrected visual acuity in the better eye ranged from 20\/20 (n = 2; 3.5%) to severe to profound vision loss (&lt;20\/200 \u2013 no light perception) (n = 25; 43.85%). Optic disc findings suggestive of mild ONH in n= 31eyes (39.2%); and severe in n =17eyes (21.5%). Bilateral ONH was noted in 22 patients (38.6%), and unilateral was noted in 35 patients (59.65%). Neuroimaging findings were reported normal (n = 10, 17.54%), absent septum pellucidum and corpus callosal thinning (n = 19, 33.33%), and chiasmal atrophy (n = 9, 15.8%). Correlation analysis confirmed that as the DD: DM distance increases, poorer vision and abnormal neuro-imaging findings were noted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Severity of ONH as indicated by DD: DM ratio is a surrogate indicator of neuro-radiological abnormalities and poor vision.
