The aim of this paper is to review anterograde degeneration throughout the anterior visual pathway, particularly in the optic tracts, the lateral geniculate nucleus, the optic radiations and the visual cortex, following optic nerve injury. Both structural and neuroimaging findings are considered in various diseases, such as optic neuritis and glaucoma. Magnetic resonance imaging findings help localize the specific brain regions where these changes can be observed. Furthermore, particular attention is given to the relationship between cortical atrophy and the location of the associated visual field defect.
本文旨在综述视神经损伤后整个视觉前通路的顺行性退变，尤其是在视束、外侧膝状体、视辐射和视觉皮层中的退变情况。在各种疾病（如视神经炎和青光眼）中，均考虑了结构和神经影像学检查结果。磁共振成像结果有助于定位可观察到这些变化的特定脑区。此外，还特别关注了皮质萎缩与相关视野缺损位置之间的关系。
