Abstract

To describe the presence of optic disk neovascularization in a child with incontinentia pigmenti. A 6-month-old infant with incontinentia pigmenti developed optic disk neovascularization in addition to vascular abnormalities in the peripheral retina. Panretinal photocoagulation was performed. The optic disk neovascularization regressed after panretinal photocoagulation. Optic disk neovascularization is another notable retinal manifestation of incontinentia pigmenti. When optic disk neovascularization is detected, retinal ablation should be considered as treatment.
