    Optic nerve gliomas often cause vision loss, but this case report details a rare instance of a young boy with a large optic nerve glioma but normal vision. This highlights an unusual presentation of optic glioma.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neurology
    • Pediatric Oncology

    Background:

    • Optic gliomas are tumors affecting the optic nerve, typically presenting with visual impairment.
    • Diagnosis often occurs when visual acuity, fields, or color vision are already compromised.

    Observation:

    • A young boy presented with a large optic nerve glioma.
    • Despite the tumor's size, his central visual acuity, visual fields, and color vision were normal.

    Findings:

    • This case represents the first documented instance of normal vision coexisting with a demonstrated optic nerve glioma.
    • The report includes comprehensive ophthalmologic, neuroradiologic, surgical, and histologic data.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of optic glioma presentations, particularly in pediatric cases.
