Downloaded from British Journal ofOphthalmology, 1982, 66, 240-241 Visual disturbances during pregnancy caused by central serous choroidopathy J. R. M. CRUYSBERG AND A. F. DEUTMAN From the Institute of Ophthalmology, University of Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands SUMMARY Three patients had during pregnancy visual disturbances caused by central serous choroidopathy. One of them had a central scotoma in her first and second pregnancy. The 2 other patients had a central scotoma in their first pregnancy. Symptoms disappeared spontaneously after delivery. Except for the ocular abnormalities the pregnancies were without complications. The complaints can be misinterpreted as pregnancy-related optic neuritis or compressive optic neuropathy, but careful biomicroscopy of the ocular fundus should avoid superfluous diagnostic and therapeutic measures. Central serous choroidopathy (previously called lamp biomicroscopy of the fundus with a Goldmann central serous retinopathy) is a spontaneous serous contact lens showed a serous detachment of the detachment of the sensory retina due to focal leakage neurosensory retina in the macular region of the from the choriocapillaris, causing serous fluid affected left eye.

  • Asymmetries of Dark and Bright Negative Afterimages Are Paralleled by Subcortical on and OFF Poststimulus Responses
    1984 • The Journal of Neuroscience, February 22, 2017 • 37(8):1984–1996 Systems/Circuits Asymmetries of Dark and Bright Negative Afterimages Are Paralleled by Subcortical ON and OFF Poststimulus Responses X Hui Li,1,2 X Xu Liu,1,2 X Ian M.

This asymmetry is consistent with results of neurophysiological recordings in dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) and primary visual cortex (V1) of cat and monkey. Specifically, V1 population responses demonstrate that darks elicit higher levels of activation than brights, and the latency of OFF responses in dLGN and V1 is shorter than that of ON responses. The removal of a dark or bright disc often generates the perception of a negative afterimage, and here we ask whether there also exist asymmetries for negative afterimages elicited by dark and bright discs. If so, do the poststimulus responses of subcortical ON and OFF cells parallel such afterimage asymmetries? To test these hypotheses, we performed psychophysical experiments in humans and single-cell/S-potential recordings in cat dLGN. Psychophysically, we found that bright afterimages elicited by luminance decrements are stronger and last longer than dark afterimages elicited by luminance increments of equal sizes.

  • Neuroimaging in Ophthalmology

Lee, MD a,b,c,d,e, Abstract In the past three decades, there have been countless advances in imaging modalities that have revolutionized evaluation, manage- ment, and treatment of neuro-ophthalmic disorders. Non-invasive approaches for early detection and monitoring of treatments have decreased morbidity and mortality. Understanding of basic methods of imaging techniques and choice of imaging modalities in cases encountered in neuro-ophthalmology clinic is critical for proper evaluation of patients. Two main imaging modalities that are often used are computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, variations of these modalities and appropriate location of imaging must be considered in each clinical scenario. In this article, we review and summarize the best neuroimaging studies for specific neuro-ophthalmic indications and the diagnostic radiographic findings for important clinical entities.

The patient’s best corrected visual acuity on Snellen chart was 1.0 in the right eye and 0.3 in the left eye. Increased horizontal cup-to-disc ratio was detected on dilated fundus examination. Retinal nerve fiber layer measurement showed diffuse nerve fiber loss and visual field test showed bitemporal hemianopsia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a lesion that filled and widened the sella and suprasellar cistern and compressed the optic chiasm. The patient was operated with transcranial approach.

The ocular effects of pregnancy may be physiological, pathological or may be modifications of pre-existing conditions. While most of the described changes are transient in nature, others extend beyond delivery and may lead to permanent visual impairment. Also, pregnancy can affect vision through systemic disease that are either specific to the pregnancy itself or systemic diseases that occur more frequently in relation to pregnancy. Neuro-ophthalmological disorders should be kept in mind in pregnant women presenting with visual acuity or field loss. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the ocular changes in pregnancy in order to counsel and advice women who currently are, or are planning to become pregnant. Key words: Ocular, pregnancy, blindness. ÖZET Göz kararmaları gebelikte yaygın olarak görülür. Gebeliğin göze etkileri fizyolojik, patolojik ya da önceden var olmuş modifikasyonlar olabilir. Tanımlanan değişikliklerin çoğu doğal olarak ortaya çıkarken genelde geçicidir fakat diğerleri doğumdan sonrasına aktarılarak kalıcı görme bozukluğuna neden olabilir. Ayrıca gebelik ya da gebeliğin kendine özgü sistemik hastalıklar veya gebelik ile ilişkili daha sık meydana gelen sistemik hastalıklar aracılığıyla görüşü etkileyebilir. Nöro-oftalmolojik bozukluklar gebe kadınlarda görsel netlik ya da görsel alan kaybı ile başvurduklarında akılda bulundurulmalıdır. Bu bağlamda gebelik planlaması yapan kadınlara danışma ve tavsiye verme için gebelikteki oküler değişikliklerinin farkında olmak çok büyük önem arz etmektedir.
