NEURO-OPHTHALMOLOGY

What is Neuro Ophthalmology?

Illnesses or medical conditions that affect the eye-brain connection are treated by neuro-ophthalmologists. These specialists diagnose and treat disorders that affect the nerves and muscles in and around the eye.

Some common diseases that a neuro-ophthalmologist may see include optic neuritis (inflammation of the optic nerve), optic neuropathy, papilledema (optic disc edema), ocular myasthenia gravis, brain tumors affecting vision, idiopathic intracranial hypertension or pseudo tumor cerebri, unexplained visual loss, headaches and double vision.

A variety of diagnostic studies will be incorporated into a patient's treatment to thoroughly evaluate a condition, including :
  1. Visual fields
  2. OCT – Optical coherence tomography
  3. CT and MRI scanning
  4. Color flow Doppler vascular imaging
