Optic Nerve Damage in Alzheimer's Disease
Ophthalmology, 1990Optic nerves from ten patients with Alzheimer's disease were histologically examined and compared with those from age-matched controls. Specific and nonspecific measures of degeneration were noted in eight of ten Alzheimer's disease optic nerves; no degeneration was noted in any of the controls.

This chapter focuses on the most frequently acquired optic nerve diseases: their signs and symptoms, visual field findings, and the required basic workup and management. Acquired optic nerve diseases are often vision threatening and sometimes even life threatening. There is a need for accurate and timely diagnosis.

Optic Nerve Disease and Axon Pathophysiology
2012Optic neuropathy is the most common cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Although the most common optic neuropathy is glaucoma, there are also many other optic neuropathies, for example, those associated with multiple sclerosis, giant cell arteritis, ischemia, and many other diseases.

Stereoacuity in Patients With Optic Nerve Disease
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1985Twenty-eight patients were given the Titmus stereoacuity test (TST). Seventeen patients had documented optic nerve disease, and 11 had no known optic nerve disease. Thirteen of 17 patients (76%) with known optic nerve disease failed to achieve their expected TST scores, while only three of 11 (27%) of the patients without optic nerve disease fell into ...

The Pattern Electroretinogram in Optic Nerve Disease
Ophthalmology, 1983Pattern evoked electroretinograms (PERG), diffuse flash electroretinograms (ERG) and visual evoked potentials were studied in patients with unilateral optic nerve disease. Patients with Snellen acuities of less than 6/30 did not have recordable PERGs in their affected eye, whereas their diffuse flash ERGs were normal.

Optic nerve coloboma associated with renal disease
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1988AbstractOptic nerve colobomas can occur as sporadic abnormalities, may be inherited as an autosomal dominant defect, occur as part of syndromes, and are rarely associated with cardiac malformations and midline encephaloceles.Karcher [1979] described a father and son with the “morning glory” optic disc anomaly and renal disease as a new association.We ...

Optic Nerve Head and Nerve Fiber Layer in Alzheimer's Disease
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1991We compared (1) the differences in the retinal nerve fiber layer between 26 patients with Alzheimer's disease and 30 age- and race-matched normal controls with use of blue-light high-resolution photography, (2) the differences in disc pallor between 30 patients with Alzheimer's disease and 32 controls with use of a boundary-tracking program and fundus ...

Optic Nerve Involvement in Neuro-Behçet's Disease
Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology, 2002To report the ocular manifestations of neuro-Behcet's disease.A 34-year-old woman had recurrent meningitis. She developed diplopia, headache, and ataxia, and was diagnosed as having neuro-Behcet's disease.Imaging revealed two infarct foci in the transitional midbrain and pons. After treatment with prednisolone and colchicine, the diplopia resolved. Two

Evaluation of optic nerve function by flicker adaptation in optic nerve diseases
Neuro-Ophthalmology, 2001The time required for the fading of a full-field 30-Hz flick-ering stimulus was measured in 15 patients (18 eyes) with optic nerve diseases to evaluate optic nerve function. Eleven eyes of eight patients had optic neuritis, five eyes had autosomal dominant hereditary optic nerve atrophy (DOA), and two eyes had Leber's hereditary optic neu-ropathy (LHON)
