Confrontation Visual Fields - A Concise Guide for Ophthalmology and Neurology Trainees | Stephen C. Pollock, MD | The guide describes the techniques required to competently perform confrontation visual fields. It outlines a basic screening protocol and discusses methods for further defining defects identified during the screening process. A mini-atlas of visual field defects is included as an appendix. | Confrontation Visual Fields; Visual Field Testing; Perimetry; Visual Field Loss; Visual Field Defect; Ocular Examination; Visual Sensory Evaluation; Neurologic Examination |

Right Lateral Medulla and Cerebellar Stroke | Jorge C Kattah, MD | This patient presented with an acute vestibular syndrome, he has a h-left beat nystagmus and a normal head impulse test . He had grade 3 truncal ataxia and severe ocular lateropulsion to the right (type 1 overt OL). Hypometric leftward, centripetal, slow saccades were video-recorded even six weeks... | Right Lateral Medulla; Cerebellar Stroke |

Convergence-Retraction Nystagmus in Dorsal-Midbrain Syndrome | Paul Freund, MD, FRCSC; Edward Margolin, MD, FRCSC | A man in his early twenties was referred by optometrist for abnormal eye motility findings. He had a remote history of an excised pinealoma. On exam he had almost complete upgaze palsy, convergence-retraction nystagmus on attempted upgaze, and light-near dissociation of pupillary reaction, the class... | Dorsal Midbrain Syndrome; Parinaud Syndrome; Convergence-Retraction Nystagmus; Light-Near Dissociation |

Dual Visual Field Defect (Quadrantanopia and Central Scotoma) Unmasks the Hidden Brain Lesion in a Patient with Non-arteritic Ischemic Optic Neuropathy | A. Mohan Kannam; B. Rajat Kapoor; C. Ramesh Kekunnaya, FRCS; Virender Sachdeva, MS, DNB | This submission is an interesting case that highlights the co-existence of two different visual field defects in the same patient presenting to us with clinical picture of non arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy. The correct interpretation of the visual field defects led to the appropriate localizat... | Hemianopia; Central Field Defect; Non-Arteritic Ischemic Optic Neuropathy; Ischemic Infarct |
