Neuro-Ophthalmology Services at Shri Ganesh Vinayak Eye Hospital
At Shri Ganesh Vinayak Eye Hospital, we provide specialized Neuro-Ophthalmology care to address complex eye conditions caused by neurological disorders. Our expert team combines advanced diagnostic tools with personalized treatment plans to manage and treat these conditions effectively.
What is Neuro-Ophthalmology?
Neuro-Ophthalmology focuses on visual problems related to the nervous system. It deals with conditions where the connection between the brain, nerves, and eyes is affected, leading to vision issues, eye movement disorders, or abnormal pupil reactions.
Conditions Treated in Neuro-Ophthalmology
Optic Nerve Disorders
- Optic neuritis (inflammation of the optic nerve).
- Optic neuropathy (damage to the optic nerve).
- Papilledema (swelling of the optic disc due to increased intracranial pressure).
Visual Field Defects
- Hemianopia (loss of half of the visual field).
- Scotomas (partial loss of vision or blind spots).
Cranial Nerve Palsies
- Affecting eye movements or causing double vision.
Stroke-Related Vision Loss
- Visual complications arising from cerebrovascular accidents.
Brain Tumors Affecting Vision
- Impacting the optic pathways or visual centers in the brain.
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH)
- A condition characterized by increased pressure inside the skull without a detectable cause.
Migraine-Related Vision Problems
- Visual aura or transient visual loss associated with migraines.
Nystagmus and Other Eye Movement Disorders
- Abnormal, involuntary eye movements.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS)-Related Vision Loss
- Vision complications linked to demyelinating diseases.
