1 Normal and Abnormal Eyelid Function"Disorders of neuro-ophthalmologic significance may affect not only visual sensory, ocular motor, and pupil function but also the function of the eyelids."Eyelid; Eyelid Function
2 Disorders of Neuromuscular Transmission"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."Ocular Motor System
3 Paraneoplastic Diseases of Neuro-Ophthalmologic Interest"A number of disorders characterized by visual dysfunction, neurologic dysfunction, or both occur in the setting of known or suspected cancers but do not result from the direct effects of the tumor."Neoplasms; Paraneoplastic Syndrome
4 Peripheral Demyelinating and Axonal Disorders"Guillain-Barre´ syndrome (GBS) until recently had been viewed as a single disorder with variations. It is now clear from electrophysiologic, pathologic, and immunologic evidence that it actually is a group of different syndromes with several distinctive subtypes (1)."Demyelinating Diseases; Axonal Disorders; Miller Fisher Syndrome; Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy; Primary Axonal Degeneration Syndromes; Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy; PADS; CIDP; AMAN
5 Myopathies Affecting the Extraocular Muscles"In this chapter, we consider disorders that produce ocular motor dysfunction from involvement of the extraocular muscles."Ocular Motor System; Extraocular Muscles; Myopathies; Muscular Dystrophy; Ion Channel Disorders; Mitochondrial Myopathies; Encephalomyopathy
6 Neuro-Ophthalmologic Manifestations of Nonorganic Disease"Patients who have physical signs and symptoms for which no adequate organic cause can be found may receive any one of a large range of diagnostic labels, including functional illness, functional overlay, hysteria, hysterical overlay, conversion reaction, psychophysiological reaction, somatization r...Nonorganic Disease
7 Nuclear and Infranuclear Ocular Motility Disorders"Lesions of the oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens nerves may be located anywhere from the ocular motor nuclei to the termination of the nerves in the extraocular muscles in the orbit."Ocular Motor System; Ocular Motility Disorders
8 Principles and Techniques of the Examination of the Ocular Motility and Alignment"In this chapter, we discuss normal and abnormal monocular and binocular eye movements as they pertain to the techniques used in the examina-tion of patients with disorders of ocular motility."Ocular Motor System; Ocular Motility; Ocular Alignment
9 Supranuclear and Internuclear Ocular Motility Disorders"In this chapter, we survey clinicopathologic correlations for supranuclear ocular motor disorders."Ocular Motor System; Ocular Motility Disorders

14 Disorders of Pupillary Function, Accommodation, and Lacrimation"In this chapter I describe various disorders that produce dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system as it pertains to the eye and orbit, including congenital and acquired disorders of pupillary function, accommodation, and lacrimation."Ocular Motor System; Accommodation, Ocular; Tears
15 The Trigeminal Nerve and Its Central Connections"Because the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve run in close proximity to cranial nerves II, III, IV, and VI, sensory dysfunction in the face may be a symptom in neuro-ophthalmic patients with vision loss and eye movement disorders."Headaches; Facial Pain; Trigeminal Nerve; Diagnoses and Examinations
16 Tumors of the Meninges and Related Tissues: Meningiomas and Sarcomas"The meninges of the brain and spinal cord consist of three different layers: the dura mater, arachnoid (tela arachnoidea), and pia mater."Neoplasms; Head and Neck Neoplasms; Meningiomas; Sarcomas
17 Viruses (Except Retroviruses) and Viral Diseases - Part 2"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 ...Infectious Diseases; Viruses; Virus Diseases
