Wilbrand’s Knee




Just think this “KNEE” as “NI” and you have the answer à Nasal and Inferior
The inferior nasal retinal fibers cross in the anterior chiasm and are thought to loop anteriorly in the contralateral optic nerve before traveling posteriorly, leading to the term Wilbrand's knee (NI=Nasal + Inferior). It is now thought that Wilbrand's knee may be an artifact.
