53 Patient Portal: Microvascular Cranial Nerve PalsyMeagan Seay, DOA nerve palsy is an impairment in the function of a nerve, which results in a decrease in function of the corresponding muscles controlled by that nerve.

This is usually the...Nerve palsy; Microvascular cranial nerve palsy; Cranial nerve 3; CN3; Oculomotor nerve; Cranial nerve 4; CN4; Trochlear nerve; Cranial nerve 6; CN6; Abducens nerve
54 Patient Portal: Non-Arteritic-Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION)Arun Sundaram, MDNon-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION or NA-AION) is caused by decreased blood flow to the front part of the optic nerve (optic disc).

55 Patient Portal: Myasthenia GravisAroucha Vickers, DOMyasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system creates antibodies (proteins that normally protect us) that may attack receptors on your muscles.

56 Patient Portal: Giant Cell ArteritisAnne S. Abel, MDGiant cell arteritis is an inflammatory condition that can cause vision loss, double vision, fever, new persistent headaches, scalp tenderness, and jaw pain with chewing.

57 Patient Portal: Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH)Devin D. Mackay, MDIdiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), also called pseudotumor cerebri, is a condition in which there is high pressure in the fluid surrounding your brain, spinal cord and optic nerves. This can cause headaches and problems with vision. Although the cause(s) of the condition is not fully unders...Idiopathic intracranial hypertension; Pseudotumor cerebri
58 Patient Portal: Homonymous HemianopsiaJames C. O'Brien, MDHomonymous hemianopia refers to an absence of vision towards one side of the visual world in each eye. The damage that caused this problem is in the brain and not in the eyes.Homonymous hemianopia; Visual pathway
59 Patient Portal: Optic NeuritisAnthony Brune, DOOptic neuritis is inflammation of the optic nerve. In optic neuritis, the covering around the fibers of the optic nerve (myelin) is damaged by inflammation (demyelination), which typically results in blurred or dark vision.Optic neuritis; Myelin; Demyelination
60 Patient Portal: Transient Vision LossAnthony Brune, DOTransient visual loss is the term used to describe loss of part or all of the vision in one or both eyes temporarily. Some people do not experience a complete loss of the affected vision and instead describe the abnormality as "blurring" or like "looking through a veil." The vision typically returns...Transient visual loss

63 Leukemic Optic NeuropathyNagham Al-Zubidi, MDPatient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia presented with left eye vision loss.Infiltrative Optic Neuropathy; Leukemic Optic Neuropathy; Other Optic Neuropathy
64 Pituitary Adenoma Masquerading as NAIONNagham Al-Zubidi, MDPatient 62-year-old male presented with vision loss in the left eye diagnosed with NAION then vision continue to get worse in both eye MRI of the brain showed pituitary adenoma.Pituitary Adenoma; NAION; Compressive Optic Neuropathy
65 Myxopapillary EpendymomaNagham Al-Zubidi, MDA case of filum terminale tumor presented with symptoms and sign of idiopathic intracranial hypertension.Myxopapillary Ependymoma; Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension; Filum Terminale Tumor
66 Patient Portal: AnisocoriaNagham Al-Zubidi, MDAnisocoria is a medical term for unequal pupil size. Normally our pupils are relatively the same size. While small differences in pupil size are normal and can even come and go (physiologic anisocoria), constant and significant differences in pupil sizes may be a sign of damage to the brain or the n...Anisocoria; Horner Syndrome; 3rd Cranial Nerve Palsy; Adie Tonic Pupil
67 Patient Portal: Pituitary AdenomaNagham Al-Zubidi, MDThe pituitary gland is a pea-sized gland that sits underneath the base of the brain. It produces and releases many hormones. These hormones control your metabolism, stress level, growth, ovulation and menstruation in women, sperm and testosterone production in men, milk production, and urine product...Pituitary Adenoma; Pituitary Tumor
68 Interpreting Ocular Fundus Photographs: A Brief GuideGabriele Berman; Sachin Kedar; Nancy J. Newman; Valerie BiousseThis is a brief guide to the interpretation of the ocular fundus photograph.
