    Description
    This is the fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) of the left eye of a 62-year-old diabetic patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy and neovascularization of disc who bled from the disc while he was undergoing an FFA procedure. The bleed from the disc gives the appearance of a cannonball fired from a cannon hence the caption "Optic Nerve Head Cannonball".
