Full Description
This book is a complete guide to neuro-ophthalmology for practising ophthalmologists and trainees. Beginning with an overview of visual acuity assessment, the next chapters explain different diagnostic techniques including optical coherence tomography. The following sections discuss numerous neuro-ophthalmic disorders and their management. The book concludes with comprehensive appendices covering Dynamic Visual Acuity: A Simple Test for Vestibular Function, Strabismus Terminology, and A Note on Ocular Motor Disorders in Multiple Sclerosis. More than 125 images and illustrations enhance the text.
