Presenting cases collected by experts in the field, this book includes high quality clinical photographs and images that bring each case to life, alongside diagnostic process and management decisions, with clear diagrams and tables to summarize key points.
This book presents fifty clinical cases in neuro-ophthalmology, some of which are common and some of which are rare. Each case is presented as a diagnostic and management challenge as found in clinical practice. High quality clinical photographs and images bring the cases to life alongside the diagnostic process and management decisions of an experienced specialist. A short summary of important aspects of the pathogenesis and treatment of each disease finishes each case.

Neuro-Ophthalmology: Illustrated Case Studies entertains and instructs the reader and is ideal reading for doctors in training in this area, as well as general consultant neurologists and ophthalmologists.
Section 1: The orbit and muscles (cases 1 - 7).- Section 2: The nerve (cases 8 - 20).- Section 3: The apex to the saddle (cases 21 - 33).- Section 4: The brain stem (cases 34 - 42).- Section 5: The cortex (cases 43 - 50).
