| Description |
Children with craniopharyngioma are usually diagnosed after the development of optic neuropathy. The tumor directly compresses the optic nerve, leading to visual field defects. The common objective measurement is the automated perimetry test, inappropriate for young children or those with poor visual acuity (VA). |
