Neuro-Ophthalmology

About Our Center

Neuro-ophthalmology is a branch of medicine concerned with visual problems related to diseases of the brain rather than diseases of the eyes themselves. With training both in neurology and ophthalmology, our neuro-ophthalmologist has the unique experience to evaluate patients from both standpoints.

Neuro-ophthalmology is an uncommon specialty, with parts of the world still underserved. Many patients are referred to our Neuro-Ophthalmology Program for further evaluation after seeing a neurologist, ophthalmologist, optometrist, or a combination of the three. Our neuro-ophthalmologist will take as much time with you as possible and strive to provide you with the answers you need. Barrow is also home to specialists in a variety of neurological conditions that underlie eye and visual problems, allowing you to receive comprehensive treatment under one roof.
