Neuro Ophthalmology

Neuro-Ophthalmology is the sub-specialty of ophthalmology that deals with diseases related to the optic nerve and the brain.

Some common diseases that a neuro-ophthalmologist may see include optic neuritis (inflammation of the optic nerve), optic neuropathy, papilledema (optic disc edema), ocular myasthenia gravis, brain tumors affecting vision, idiopathic intracranial hypertension or pseudo tumor cerebri, unexplained visual loss, headaches and double vision.

 

We, at Thind Eye Hospital, are equipped with the latest electrophysiology machines (VER, ERG, and multifocal ERG) to diagnose and monitor these complex disorders.
