Neuro-Ophthalmology

Neuro-ophthalmology is concerned with the visual system and its relationship with the brain. As a practice, it treats a number of diseases or deformities related to the orbit (or eye socket), including reconstructive surgery.

Visual problems related to neuro-opthalmology include:

• Optic neuritis
• Multiple sclerosis
• Graves disease
• Pseudotumor cerebri
• Headaches
• Head trauma
