In this work we demonstrate an application of a single-shot EPI diffusion sequence with outer-volume suppression to optic nerve imaging. The advantage of this approach is that it is simple and is available on clinical systems. This paves a way to a routine diffusion-encoded clinical examinations of the optic nerve
