Optic Nerve// by Shivani Rae// The optic nerves are solely sensory. #Repost @soton_brain_hub They convey visual information from each retina out of the eye and into the skull through the optic canals. The left and right optic nerves meet to form the optic chiasm, where fibres from the nasal half of each retina cross over. The optic tract continues to the lateral geniculate nucleus in the thalamus, from where optic radiations fan out to the primary visual cortex in the occipital lobe. The visual pathway is a useful diagram to be able to draw as it allows you to figure out where a lesion is when presented with a visual field deficit. Just shade in the parts of the visual field that are lost and track along the pathway to find the lesion! Using this method you can see for yourself how bitemporal hemianopia (bilateral loss of the temporal visual field) is most likely caused by damage at the optic chiasm. Enlargement of which nearby structure may be responsible for compression of the optic chiasm? #opticnerve #visualpathway #vision #nlm2 #nlm2soton #12days #12nerves #neuro #neuroanatomy #anatomy #clinicalanatomy #medstudent #medschool #medicina #neuroscience #clinical #neurosurgeryblog #neurocirurgiabr

Neuro ophthalmology Delhi is concerned with diagnosing and treating the nervous system vision problems, including problems with the optic nerve, brain, and coordination of the eye. Specialized neuro ophthalmology in Delhi is helpful in the treatment of patients who complain of unexplained vision loss, double vision, optic neuritis, or neurological eye conditions. Modern-day diagnostic methods like visual field test, OCT, and neuro-imaging are used to determine the underlying cause of intricate visual problems. The significant importance of early diagnosis is to avoid irreversible damage to vision and enhance the quality of life. In case you experience sudden vision changes or other neurological symptoms of your eyes, early consultation with a neuro ophthalmology Delhi will be able to diagnose and treat the disease.

Glaucoma medication plays a crucial role in managing eye pressure and preventing optic nerve damage. Eye drops, including prostaglandin analogs and beta-blockers, help regulate fluid drainage and reduce intraocular pressure. Oral medications, such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, are sometimes used when eye drops are insufficient. While glaucoma is not curable, timely treatment can slow its progression. Many people with a family history of glaucoma may have a higher risk, making regular eye check-ups essential. Proper adherence to prescribed medications helps maintain vision and reduces the risk of complications associated with elevated eye pressure.
