Retinal and Optic Nerve Diseases
Artificial Organs, 2003Abstract: A variety of disease processes can affect the retina and/or the optic nerve, including vascular or ischemic disease, inflammatory or infectious disease, and degenerative disease. These disease processes may selectively damage certain parts of the retina or optic nerve, and the specific areas that are damaged may have implications for the ...

Nutrition and Optic Nerve Disease
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 1995The syndrome characterized by papillomacular bundle damage, central or cecocentral scotoma, and reduction of color vision can be produced by toxic, nutritional, or hereditary causes. Patients who present with such a picture should be evaluated for toxic sources such as tobacco or alcohol use.

Hospital Practice, 1985
The primary care physician is in a strategic position to recognize optic nerve diseases that are early manifestations of common systemic conditions. A detailed history and a few simple visual tests can yield the clues.

Optic nerve and chiasmal disease
Journal of Neurology, 2000This review of optic nerve and chiasmal disease briefly outlines the clinical assessment and the use of diagnostic testing in the topical diagnosis of lesions of the anterior visual pathways. The commoner pathological entities including inflammatory, vascular, heredofamilial and compressive lesions are then summarised with specific reference to ...

DISEASES OF THE RETINA AND OPTIC NERVE
Archives of Ophthalmology, 19543and was adopted by a joint committee for the study of retrolental fibroplasia appointed by the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. This classifica¬ tion should be studied in the original, as it is rather detailed and is accompanied by illustrative drawings.

OPTIC NERVE DEGENERATION IN ALZHEIMERʼS DISEASE
Journal of Neuropathology and Experimental Neurology, 1986Alzheimer's disease is a dementing disorder of unknown cause in which there is degeneration of neuronal subpopulations in the central nervous system. In postmortem studies, we found widespread axonal degeneration in the optic nerves of 8 of 10 patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Diseases of the Retina and Optic Nerve
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1957As in other years, the literature on dis¬ eases of the retina and optic nerve was extremely voluminous in 1956. Most of the papers were concerned with further work on retrolental fibroplasia and the surgical repair of retinal detachment. Most of this subject matter was discussed in one or more papers.

Brightness-Sense and Optic Nerve Disease
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1985We describe a simple device used to compare the sense of brightness in the two eyes. An investigation of brightness-sense with this device in normal persons and patients with optic nerve disease, maculopathies, cataract, and factitious visual impairment shows that brightness testing can provide useful information supplementary and complementary to ...

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 ...

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 ...
