Description |
In this session we will hear the international perspective on the diagnosis and management of two common Neuro-ophthalmic presentations. First, we will discuss a case of optic neuritis. Each speaker will approach this case from the perspective of the underlying diagnosis and associated management that is most common in their local hospitals. Our European speaker will discuss ON related to multiple sclerosis. From America and Asia ON related to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and neuro-myelitis optica will be discussed. We will hear about infective optic neuritis and the presentations seen in an Indian setting. This will highlight all major causes of optic neuritis from an international perspective and provide an insight into management of patients that might come to our clinics from different geographical areas and ethnic backgrounds. Second, we will discuss a case of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Our two speakers will discuss similarities and differences in management style between their institutions. This will allow us to critically evaluate our own practices and how the experience of other centers might help in our own management. |
