| drusen of the macula | Excrescences of Bruch's membrane that produce a window in the retinal pigment epithelium and are a feature of age-related macular retinal degeneration. Synonym: macular drusen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drusen of the optic nerve head | Basophilic, laminated, calcareous acellular masses that resemble crystals within the nerve head, anterior to the lamina cribrosa, that may simulate papilledema and/or cause visual field defects. Synonym: intrapapillary drusen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| macular drusen | Excrescences of Bruch's membrane that produce a window in the retinal pigment epithelium and are a feature of age-related macular retinal degeneration. Synonym: macular drusen. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| giant drusen | An obsolete term for a glial hamartoma of the optic nerve head or the peripapillary retina, seen in tuberous sclerosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinal drusen | <ophthalmology> Colloid or hyaline bodies lying beneath the retinal pigment epithelium. They may occur either secondary to changes in the choroid that affect the pigment epithelium or as an autosomal dominant disorder of the retinal pigment epithelium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intrapapillary drusen | Basophilic, laminated, calcareous acellular masses that resemble crystals within the nerve head, anterior to the lamina cribrosa, that may simulate papilledema and/or cause visual field defects. Synonym: intrapapillary drusen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| optic disk drusen | Hyaline bodies occurring in the intra-ocular portion of the optic nerve. They are distinguished from retinal drusen, which lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium. This disorder is differentiated also from papilledema by the absence of dilated retinal vessels. (12 Dec 1998) |
| optic nerve drusen | Basophilic, calcareous, laminated acellular bodies within the optic nerve anterior to the scleral lamina cribrosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drusen |
These are accumulation of waste products of metabolism under the retina, which are associated with age-related macular degeneration. They are white / yellow and may be discrete or confluent dots.

| drusen |
small yellowish, protein lipid deposits in the retina appearing in the early stages of dry (atrophic) macular degeneration. Two types: hard and soft, with the latter being more likely to signal future retinal problems. For more information, go to the MD Support Library.

| drusen |
Tiny yellow or white deposits in the retina of the eye or on the optic nerve head, visible to an eye care specialist during an eye examination. One of the most common early signs of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). The presence of drusen alone does not indicate disease, but it may mean that the eye is at risk for developing more severe ARMD.
