This book offers a patient-centred approach to the diagnosis and treatment of major neuro-ophthalmic conditions. Focusing on important presenting signs and symptoms, it leads the reader through the sometimes subtle manifestations of neuro-ophthalmic disease to anatomic localisation of lesions and definitive diagnosis. Also includes an overview of the anatomy of the visual pathway, guidelines for conducting the neuro-ophthalmic examination, and appropriate use of diagnostic imaging studies. For over 60 years, the "BCSC" has been the core curriculum in ophthalmology residency programs and a definitive source of up-to-date clinical knowledge for practitioners. Continually updated by a faculty of leading ophthalmologists in academia and practice, the "BCSC" draws on a solid foundation of scientific research and clinical experience.
