OPT 784 - Neuro-ophthalmic Disease

1.5 credit(s)
Diagnosis of important neurologic diseases that disrupt the visual system. Particular emphasis will be on increasing the clinician’s suspicion that a neurologic dysfunction underlies the ocular manifestation in order to efficiently initiate patient co-management. Common entities such as pupil, eyelid, optic nerve, and eye movement disorders, will be examined in great detail, as well headaches, functional vision loss, ocular and behavioral manifestations of regional brain dysfunction, and other conditions that provide clinical challenges.
