1 Anatomy and Physiology of the Autonomic Nervous SystemRandy H. Kardon, MD, PhD, Director of Neuro-Ophthalmology Services, Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Iowa"Body functions that are regulated independently of voluntary activity using reflex mechanisms involving afferent nerve input, efferent nerve output, and central integrating nerve pathways are part of the autonomic nervous system."
2 Disorders of Pupillary Function, Accommodation, and LacrimationAki Kawasaki, MD, PhD, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne"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."
3 Embryology, Anatomy, and Physiology of the Afferent Visual PathwayJoseph F. Rizzo III, MD, Massachusetts Eye and Ear"The brain devotes more cells and connections to vision than any other sense or motor function. This chapter presents an overview of the development, anatomy, and physiology of this extremely complex but fascinating system."
4 The Trigeminal Nerve and Its Central ConnectionsGrant T. Liu, MD. Professor of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania"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."

7 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."
8 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."
9 Anatomy and Physiology of Ocular Motor SystemsJames A. Sharpe, MD, FRCP(C) (1941-2013); Agnes Wong, MD, PhD, FRCSC, University of Toronto"In this chapter we describe physiologic processes and anatomic bases for the control of eye movements."
10 Nuclear and Infranuclear Ocular Motility DisordersJane C. Sargent, MD, Neurology, Clinical Neurophysiology, University of Massachusetts"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."

21 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."
22 Neuro-Ophthalmologic Manifestations of Nonorganic DiseaseNeil R Miller, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University"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...
23 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)."
