Fundus Changes.—Edge of disc seen with + 6 D. and the bottom of the cup is seen witha — 5 D. Vessels of the retina disappear as they pass into and around the edge of the disc,and are out of focus when they reach the bottom of the cup, where they appear indistinctlyat the nasal side. The nerve is bluish or pearly white in color and atrophic (glaucomaatrophy). The edges of the disc have a distinctly yellowish color and the pigment is brokeninto fine particles. There is a peculiar redness showing at the macula. The cupping embraces the entire disc. 226 PLATE XIV. Fig. i.
