6 AneurysmsSteven A. Newman, M.D., University of Virginia School of MedicineThis chapter includes the history, Definition, Pathogenesis and description of a number of different aneurysms.
7 Multiple Sclerosis and Related Demyelinating DiseasesLaura J. Balcer, MD, Professor, Department of Neurology, NYU Langone"Destruction of myelin, demyelination, may occur in a variety of diverse inflammatory disorders. Demyelination may result from viral infections and is a prominent feature in the group of disorders known as the demyelinating diseases, of which multiple sclerosis (MS) is perhaps the most well known."

9 Diseases Caused by HelminthicMoazami, Golnaz"This chapter considers diseases of neuro-ophthalmologic significance produced by helminths."
10 VasculitisSteven L. Galetta, MD, NYU Langone"In this chapter, we consider disorders that produce neuroophthalmologic symptoms and signs from inflammation of blood vessels."
11 Normal and Abnormal Eyelid FunctionBarry Skarf, MD, PhD, Henry Ford Health System"Disorders of neuro-ophthalmologic significance may affect not only visual sensory, ocular motor, and pupil function but also the function of the eyelids."
12 Carotid-Cavernous Sinus FistulasNeil R Miller, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University"A carotid-cavernous sinus fistula (CCF) is an abnormal communication between the cavernous sinus and the carotid arterial system."
13 Miscellaneous Tumors of Neuro-Ophthalmologic InterestBenjamin M. Frishberg, M.D."In this chapter we consider several tumors that may produce neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms and signs that do not specifically arise from intradural neural tissue."
14 Principles and Techniques of the Examination of the Visual Sensory SystemMichael Wall, MD, University of Iowa, Department of Neurology and Ophthalmology; Johnson, Chris A"This chapter describes the most common subjective and objective tests used in the afferent visual system examination."
15 Spirochetal DiseasesLesser, Robert L"Spirochetes are widely distributed in nature and often are found in aquatic environments, but they colonize humans. All spirochetal infections are characterized by skin or mucous membrane penetration followed by a spirochetemia that produces damage during several clinical stages (2)."
16 Topical Diagnosis of TumorsNancy J. Newman, MD, Emory Eye Center"In this chapter, we consider the symptoms and signs that may occur in patients with ocular, orbital, intracranial, and spinal cord tumors."
17 Lesions Produced by Infections and Inflammations of the Central Nervous SystemBarrett J. Katz, MD, MBA"The central nervous system (CNS) is anatomically protected from invasion by most organisms by structures such as bone, fibrous membranes, and vascular tight junctions (1-3). Nevertheless, once organisms gain entry to the CNS, they proliferate more easily than almost anywhere else in the body."
18 Protozoa and Protozoal DiseasesWayne T. Cornblath, MD, Clinical Professor, Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Professor, Department of Neurology, University of Michigan"Protozoa (from the Latin words proto, meaning ‘‘first,'' and zoon, meaning ‘‘animal'') are acellular or unicellular organisms that are found all over the world in moist soil, fresh water, and oceans."
19 Topical Diagnosis of Acquired Optic Nerve DisordersAlfredo A. Sadun, MD, PhD, Flora L. Thornton Chair, Professor of Ophthalmology and Neurological Surgery, Keck School of Medicine at USC; Agarwal, Madhu RDistinguishing an optic neuropathy from retinal disease.
20 Tumors of Neuroectodermal OriginHedges III, Thomas R"Neuroectodermal tumors arise from cells derived from the primitive neuroectoderm (1) including neuroglial cells, parenchymal cells of the pineal gland, neurons, and primitive embryonal cells of the brain and retina."
21 Viruses (Except Retroviruses) and Viral Diseases - Part 2Paul W. Brazis, MD, Mayo Clinic; Neil R Miller, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University"Viruses are important causes not only of human systemic disease but also of neurologic and visual disease. It is not the purpose of this chapter to consider all known viruses that produce human disease or to consider all diseases produced by those viruses. Instead, we will restrict this chapter to ...

23 Bacteria and Bacterial DiseasesPrem S Subramanian, MD, PhD, ​Professor of Ophthalmology, Neurology, and Neurosurgery, University of ColoradoThis chapter describes various bacteria and bacterial diseases.
24 Disorders of Neuromuscular TransmissionPreston C Calvert, MD"To understand the pathophysiology of the defects in myasthenia gravis (MG) and other disorders that damage the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), it is necessary to have some knowledge of the basic events of neuromuscular transmission."
25 Hereditary Optic NeuropathiesNancy J. Newman, MD, Emory Eye Center"The hereditary optic neuropathies comprise a group of disorders in which the cause of optic nerve dysfunction appears to be hereditable, based onfamilial expressionor genetic analysis (1,2)."
