What happens during the evaluation?
The neuro-ophthalmologic evaluation is one of the most comprehensive examinations you will experience. It may take a few hours to complete. You will be asked to give an account of your current problem and relate your entire medical history, including previous hospitalizations, operations, serious illnesses, medical problems in your family members, medications and allergies. You will have a complete eye examination. This may include testing of your peripheral vision (visual field test), or other specialized testing. The neuro-ophthalmologist will review the records and scans from previous evaluations, if applicable.
