| Description |
Despite medical advances, studies show alarmingly high rates of diagnostic error (up to 15% in the USA). Because diagnosis of neuro-ophthalmologic conditions requires resource-intensive analytic reasoning, these conditions are particularly vulnerable to misdiagnosis, it is particularly prone to diagnostic errors. This review summarizes recent literature on diagnostic error relevant to neuro-ophthalmology practice. |
