Neuro-Ophthalmology
Evaluation and management of visual disorders related to the optic nerve, visual pathways, and their neurological connections, with emphasis on accurate localisation, diagnosis, and coordinated care.
Neuro-ophthalmology services focus on visual symptoms arising from disorders of the optic nerve, visual pathways, and ocular motor system. Patients may present with vision loss, visual field defects, optic disc abnormalities, diplopia, or abnormal eye movements.
Evaluation involves detailed assessment of visual acuity, colour vision, pupillary responses, ocular motility, and visual fields. Imaging and systemic investigations are integrated when indicated to localise pathology and support diagnosis.
Management emphasises accurate diagnosis, coordination with neurology or other specialties when required, and longitudinal monitoring. Patient education regarding disease implications and follow-up requirements is an essential component of the service.
