Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A circular shape of the optic disc is a normal finding. The margins of the disc should be sharp and distinct, without blurring into the surrounding tissues. The color of the optic disc should be creamy yellow or pink, but never blue. There should not be any depressions or elevations on the surface of the disc.
