Summary

(A) Kestenbaum's sign in severe optic atrophy. A score of 1 highlights severe disease. (B) Kestenbaum's sign in borderline optic atrophy. The optic disc here may be passed as normal. However, if the number of small vessels traversing the disc margin (which are not obviously arteries, veins or branches thereof) is counted, only 2–3 (arrowed) can be scored, which is well below the normal level of 9–10. (C) An early glaucomatous disc with a Kestenbaum score of 6. (D) A healthy optic disc. A large number of capillaries can be counted (Kestenbaum score: 9–10). Their course from disc surface arterioles to peripapillary retinal capillaries is evident.
