Description Bariatric surgery, in which the gastrointestinal tract is surgically manipulated with the goal of decreasing caloric absorption and ultimately causing weight loss, is relevant to neuro-ophthalmologists for two main reasons.

Second, neuroophthalmic symptoms and signs may result from the nutrient deficiencies that can accompany altered caloric absorption.
