title: Localising patterns of optic nerve hypoplasia--retina to occipital lobe.
abstract: Six cases are presented which provide clinical evidence that optic nerve hypoplasia can occur as a result of a lesion at any site in the developing visual system. The mechanisms of hypoplasia are discussed in the light of recent understanding of optic nerve development.
