OPT 7424 Neuro-Ophthalmic Disease 3 1.0 Credit
The Neuro-Ophthalmic Disease Course Series builds on the foundation laid in the Head and Neck Anatomy, Neuroanatomy, and Neurologic Examination Courses. This course series consists of 3 courses and covers the clinical application of the neuroscience, anatomy and neuroanatomy principles learned in previous courses. This course offers students the opportunity not only to apply those important basic science concepts clinically, but to learn how to properly examine, diagnose, and treat patients with neuro-ophthalmic manifestations. Specifically, this course covers nystagmus, visual disturbanced, headaches, neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of cancer and neuro-degenerative disease, and also takes concepts learned in NOD1 and NOD2 about the afferent and efferent visual systems, and applies them to everyday practice.
