Summary:

Organized by symptom-rather than by known diagnosis-the new, 3rd Edition of this critically acclaimed resource simplifies the identification and treatment of a full range of neuro-ophthalmic conditions. Abundant decision trees and concise text discussions systematically guide readers from any presenting complaint through the appropriate tests to a definitive diagnosis. They also outline the most appropriate medical and surgical management approaches. Every chapter has been thoroughly updated to reflect the very latest information in the field. Decision trees have been simplified to make problem solving easier than ever before. A new, 52-figure full-color insert demonstrates recent advances in brain imaging. Coverage encompasses hot topics such as optic neuropathies visual illusions and hallucinations eyelid disturbances proptosis and periodic pain and headache.
