Optic neuropathy in classical methylmalonic acidemia.

Conclusion: Optic neuropathy was a frequent finding in classical MMA. It was often bilateral and some cases were sub-clinical, lacking visual symptoms. These findings have important management implications. Full ophthalmic evaluations should be performed early and regularly in patients with MMA, even when patients are asymptomatic.
