An 18-year-old Japanese boy with optic disk drusen associated with left central retinal artery occlusion was reported. Transient central blurred vision, possibly caused by central retinal artery spasm, was noticed as an initial symptom of optic disk drusen in the left eye. Prolonged and repeated spasm might have given rise to a central retinal artery occlusion followed by neovascular glaucoma. The relationship between drusen in the disk and intrapapillary circulation disturbances was discussed.
