Neuro-Opthalmology  

The Connection Between Brain and Vision

Neuro-ophthalmology is a specialized field that bridges the gap between neurology and ophthalmology, focusing on visual problems that are related to the nervous system. At Raj Eye Hospital, we recognize the intricate connection between the brain, nerves, and eyes, which is why we offer expert care in neuro-ophthalmology. This subspecialty deals with complex conditions such as optic neuritis, papilledema, ocular myasthenia gravis, and visual disturbances caused by strokes or brain tumors. These conditions can have a profound impact on vision and overall quality of life, making early diagnosis and treatment critical.

Understanding neuro-ophthalmological conditions requires a deep knowledge of both the visual system and the brain’s complex pathways. Symptoms like double vision, visual field loss, or unexplained visual disturbances can often be linked to underlying neurological issues. At Raj Eye Hospital, our neuro-ophthalmology experts are trained to identify and manage these complex conditions. We use advanced diagnostic techniques, including visual field tests, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and neuroimaging, to accurately diagnose and create a treatment plan tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
