Neovascularization of the optic disk associated with atypical retinitis pigmentosa.
A 32-year-old man with atypical retinitis pigmentosa developed bilateral neovascularization of the optic disk. One year after the diagnosis, vitreous hemorrhage occurred in one eye. Panretinal photocoagulation of this eye resulted in some regression of the neovascularization.
