Abstract
The heredofamilial optic atrophies may show a variability of pattern of inheritance, onset, origin or (and) evolution, may be accompanied by differents systemic and neuro-sensorial syndromes, but are named by the type of field defects (central, caecocentral, open angle glaucomatous type, peripheral arcuate). Our family B. W. is therefore to be considered as a recessive sex linked variant juvenile optic atrophy.
