Curbside Consultation in Neuro-Ophthalmology has been updated into
a Second Edition! The Second Edition contains new questions and is
completely updated! Curbside Consultation in Neuro-Ophthalmology:
49 Clinical Questions, Second Edition contains new questions and
brief, practical, evidence-based answers to the most frequently
asked questions that are posed during a "curbside consultation"
between surgical colleagues. Dr. Andrew G. Lee and associate
editors Dr. Paul W. Brazis and Dr. Lanning B. Kline have designed
this unique reference in which neuro-ophthalmologists offer expert
advice, preferences, and opinions on tough clinical questions
commonly associated with neuro-ophthalmology. The unique Q&A
format provides quick access to current information related to
neuro-ophthalmology with the simplicity of a conversation between
two colleagues. Images, diagrams, and references are included to
enhance the text and to illustrate common clinical dilemmas. Some
of the questions that are answered inside the Second Edition
include: What is the evaluation for papilledema? What is the work
up for third nerve palsy? What is the treatment for giant cell
arteritis? What is the evaluation for optic disc edema with a
macular star? What is the evaluation for anisocoria? Curbside
Consultation in Neuro-Ophthalmology: 49 Clinical Questions, Second
Edition provides information basic enough for residents while also
incorporating expert pearls that even high-volume ophthalmologists
will appreciate. Residents, fellows, and practicing physicians
alike will benefit from the user-friendly, casual format and the
expert advice contained within.
A comprehensive overview on the management of clinically important
neuro-ophthalmic disorders It is paramount for clinicians to
understand the distinguishing signs and symptoms among many
different local and systemic neuro-ophthalmic disorders in order to
provide the most efficacious evaluations and treatments. Clinical
Pathways in Neuro-Ophthalmology: An Evidence-Based Approach, Third
Edition reflects the authors' extensive training and experience in
the field of neuro-ophthalmology, as well as updates in the field.
Stacy Smith, Andrew Lee, Paul Brazis, and an impressive group of
contributors have written an unsurpassed learning tool on how to
manage patients with known or presumed neuro-ophthalmologic
conditions, in the most logical, straightforward, and
cost-effective manner. The authors share significant clinical
pearls and knowledge throughout 20 chapters. The book lays a solid
foundation on the management of neurologic eye disorders including
symptoms, ophthalmologic testing, diagnosis, and treatment. Among
the discussed disorders are anterior and retrobulbar optic
neuropathies, disorders of ocular motility and alignment, lid
abnormalities, and anisocoria. Insights are provided on key topics
including the use of office examinations, laboratory tests, and
neuroimaging studies to make an ophthalmologic diagnosis; and
ophthalmologic therapy to treat eye movement disorders such as
nystagmus. Key Highlights Unique graphic algorithms help clinicians
differentiate conditions with frequently overlapping clinical
manifestations The evaluation and treatment of various
neuro-ophthalmologic processes, stratified by four classes of
evidence and four levels of clinical recommendation A basic set of
references for each subject enables readers to expand knowledge
High quality four-color clinical images enhance learning This book
is essential reading for neuro-ophthalmologists, ophthalmologists,
neurologists, and residents and fellows in these fields of
medicine. This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy

The management of emergent neuro-ophthalmic conditions can be a
life-saving encounter for the general ophthalmologist. This book
covers life-threatening scenarios that a general ophthalmologist
might encounter, and is designed to help the ophthalmologist make
emergency triage decisions for initial evaluation and treatment of
potentially vision- or life-threatening conditions. This book is
case based, and provides the reader with the invaluable expert
views of two neuro-ophthalmologists. One, Dr Lee is an
ophthalmology-based neuro-ophthalmologist and the other, Dr Brazis
is a neurology-based neuro-ophthalmologist. Dr Mughal and Dr
Policeni collected and collated the case vignettes during their
fellowship with Dr Lee at the University of Iowa Hospitals and
Clinics. This textbook provides a concise, easy to read, and
practical guide to the emergent evaluation of neuro-ophthalmic
conditions. It is designed to be a quick read and not to be
all-inclusive or comprehensive. The reader is directed to longer
and more comprehensive neuro-ophthalmic texts for this information.
It is also not the aim of the book to provide information on
anatomy, pharmacology, physiology, or other basic mechanisms of
disease. Instead, this text is meant to be a quick reference and
resource for the clinician in the emergency room or in the clinic
facing a potentially vision- or life-threatening emergency and to
provide immediate guidance for potentially "high stakes" decision
making. The case vignettes are based upon real clinical cases but
the clinical details of each case have been modified for teaching
purposes and represent composite rather than individual histories.
