Crucial teaching points from the #OpticNeuritis Treatment Trial but the landscape of testing and treatment has changed a lot in the last 30 years #NeurOphth #autoimmune #MultipleSclerosis

Got a patient with #anisocoria and can't find your apraclonidone drops? Just break out your handy automated pupillometer #pupil #anisocoria #NeuroOph #eyes #Ophthalmology

Do albino pumpkins have transillumination defects?

They do if they are jack-o'-lanterns! 🎃

It's always good to rule out infections before starting in puric steroids, especially in atypical presentations

Join us for this great conference on vision loss and Neuro-ophthalmology!

Careful attention to the outer retinal helps to distinguish this mimicker from sequential NAOIN

When #papilledema is NOT idiopathic ...

This is a must-not-miss diagnosis with a rarely seen but classic fluorescein angiography finding!

This is why we should only use neurotoxin from the inferior orbital rim and above and reserve boosters to the lower face

Diagnosis of tumor to tumor metastasis requires an extra dose of clinical suspicion

Did y'all know about the #sugar #seizure? Add it to your differential for #migraine persistent visual #aura and visual #hallucinations

When bilateral optic disc edema is NOT #papilledema, you have to think outside the box #eye #ophthalmology #neurology #medicine

Patients presenting with #papilledema after age 45 may have milder disease detected on routine eye exam for #presbyopia symptoms #iih #migraine

Did you know #retina disease can be associated with #OpticDisc #drusen? #eye #Ophthalmology #vision

It may take buy-in from radiology and the Emergency Dept , but setting up an urgent MRI pathway can help to cut down on ED referrals for patients with urgent neuro-ophth findings such as optic neuritis, optic disc edema and diplopia. #eye #ophthalmology #NeuroOphth

Crucial finding that optic disc edema in #Behcets is probably not just papillitis from #uveitis but likely a harbinger of neuro-behcets #Eye #ophthalmology

We know that MOGAD is more likely to cause disc edema and NMO-SD and MOGAD cause more damage / nerve loss, but this degree of accuracy from color fundus photos alone is mind blowing #OpticNeuritis #ArtificialIntelligence #Eye #ophthalmology

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing imaging based fields of medicine and will help to reduce misdiagnosis & unnecessary tests. So cool to see this work from the BONSAI group on optic disc drusen. #eyesky

Always have a great time talking with @chenmayo from @mayoclinic about his exciting research into #OpticNeuritis, listen to our recent convo on the use of plasma exchange (PLEX) as rescue therapy #NeuroOphth #neurology #ophthalmology #eye #medicine #autoimmune
