Description
NEURO-OPHTHALMOLOGY was developed for practitioners, residents, and students who encounter patients with disturbances of the afferent
visual pathways and efferent ocular motor systems. It contains in-depth discussions of neurophthalmic topics and disorders to help readers
diagnose and manage patients. Each chapter includes an introduction to the structures or disorders discussed, followed by a review of
their neuroanatomy, symptoms, and signs. A detailed discussion of the presentation, pathophysiology, diagnosis, neuroimaging and diagnostic
studies, and management of the diseases which affect that structure follows.
