Description |
The diagnosis of an optic neuropathy depends upon the constellation of signs and symptoms including history of visual loss (rapid vs. slow onset, progressive vs. stable), the presence or absence of other neurologic or ocular signs (relative afferent pupillary defect, acquired color deficit, visual field loss, ocular motor paresis, proptosis, optociliary shunt veins, optic disc swelling, optic pallor), and, occasionally, the results of electrophysiologic testing. |
