"Optic disc drusen are radiographically identified in ~2% (range 0.3-3.7%) of the population and are bilateral in ~75% of cases ^1,4,5,13; the prevalence in children is lower than in adults, at ~0.5%¹⁰. In general, they are more common in Caucasian populations than in African American populations ⁴."

Line 5:150 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"clinically, drusen mimics the appearance of optic disc swelling; if optic disc drusen is misdiagnosed as optic disc swelling it can lead to unnecessary work-up for suspected raised intracranial pressure ¹⁰"

Line 73:78 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"optic disc drusen may be seen incidentally on CT brain done for other reasons; reporting their presence may be of use to ophthalmologists and neuro-ophthalmologists ¹¹"
