The neurological disorders of vision differ from other ophthalmological conditions in their origins, manifestations and treatment. Wider physical involvement requires a more systemic approach to diagnosis and management. Neuro-ophthalmology bridges the gap between two major specialties and provides the clinician with an understanding of the workings of the visual apparatus in both the eye and the brain. The management of the different neuron-ophthalmological conditions also involves the subspecialties of neurosurgery, ENT, and neuroradiology making this a comprehensive introduction for ophthalmological and neurological trainees as well as for practicing clinicians. Chapters include: Anatomy and physiology Clinical examination and investigations Retinal disorders Optic nerve and chiasmal disease Post-chiasmal disease Peripheral eye movement disorders Central disorders of eye movements Nystagmus and other involuntary eye movements Headache and facial pain With outstanding colour illustrations and contributors from distinguished specialists, this is and authoritative and welcome addition to the existing literature on neuro-ophthalmology.
