Electrodiagnostic assessment in optic nerve disease
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2009Complementary electrophysiological techniques can be useful in detecting and localizing dysfunction within the visual pathway. Recent developments are outlined in the context of neuro-ophthalmology.The relationship between nerve fibre layer anatomy and the pattern visual evoked potential has been addressed, correlating axonal loss with visual pathway ...

Gene therapy in optic nerve disease
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2018Highlight some of the recent advances in gene therapy and gene modification for optic nerve disease to promote axon regeneration, neuroprotection, and increased visual functioning.Visual loss secondary to optic nerve damage occurs in numerous ophthalmologic and neurologic conditions.

Orbital disease, optic nerve and chiasm
Current Opinion in Neurology, 1997The diagnosis and management of diseases of the orbit, optic nerve and chiasm continue to evolve. Advances in neuroradiology are remarkable and continue to expand diagnosis and management. This review will highlight the clinical assessment of disease, orbital and neuroimaging, medical and surgical management.

Optic nerve involvement in Lyme disease
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2012The tick-borne spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato can cause several neural manifestations from the peripheral and central neural system. There are several case reports in the literature of optic nerve involvement in association with Lyme neuroborreliosis, but clinical guidelines as to when Lyme disease should be considered in optic neuropathy ...

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.

Adrenoleukodystrophy by Disease of the Eye and Optic Nerve
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1976Adrenoleukodystrophy is an X-chromosome-linked recessive disease characterized by primary atrophy of the adrenal glands with or without Addison's disease and low plasma cortisol levels, and a degeneration of white matter of the central nervous system with blindness.

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.

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.

Publisher Summary The optic nerve extends from the chiasma to the optic disc, but it focuses on part between the optic foramen and the lamina cribrosa. This portion of the nerve is divided into two parts: the orbital portion and the intra-ocular portion.

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)
