Description |
Multiple sclerosis may cause demyelination at any level of the visual sensory pathway; however, less than 10% of patients develop homonymous visual field defects. We describe the case of a patient who presented to our clinic complaining of loss of vision on her left side. Goldman visual-field testing demonstrated left congruous homonymous sectoranopia. |
