Neuro-Ophthalmology

When the Eyes and Brain Speak, We Help Interpret the Message

Vision is more than just what your eyes see—it’s what your brain understands. The complex relationship between the eyes, the optic nerves, and the brain means that sometimes, vision problems are actually signs of deeper neurological issues. That’s where neuro-ophthalmology comes in.

At SVNM Eye Hospital, our Neuro-Ophthalmology Department specializes in diagnosing and managing visual disorders that stem from neurological conditions. These may include optic nerve diseases, visual field defects, unexplained vision loss, eye movement disorders, and symptoms like double vision, drooping eyelids, or imbalance that may have neurological roots.

This field requires detailed, interdisciplinary evaluation. Our neuro-ophthalmologists work closely with neurologists, radiologists, and general physicians to provide comprehensive care that goes beyond the eye. Using advanced diagnostic tools such as visual field testing, OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography), MRI referrals, and thorough neurological assessments, we dig deeper to identify the real cause of your symptoms.

Patients often come to us after experiencing persistent issues that don’t respond to typical eye treatments. Conditions we commonly treat include optic neuritis, papilledema (optic nerve swelling), brain-related visual field loss, cranial nerve palsies affecting eye movements, and visual symptoms related to multiple sclerosis, stroke, or tumors. In some cases, these symptoms are the first warning signs of a neurological condition, making early diagnosis crucial.

What sets our neuro-ophthalmology service apart is the patience and precision involved in each case. We take time to understand complex visual complaints that may seem vague or difficult to explain, and we believe in involving patients fully in understanding their condition and treatment plan.

From diagnostic clarity to long-term management, we support you at every stage. Some conditions may require medication, others regular monitoring, and in more serious cases, referrals for surgery or neurological care. No matter the approach, our focus is always on preserving your vision and overall well-being.

At SVNM Eye Hospital, we understand how frightening it can be when vision problems feel unexplained or unpredictable. Our neuro-ophthalmology team offers not just medical expertise, but also reassurance, support, and guidance through every step of the journey.
