Description
Neurology of Vision and Visual Disorders, Volume 178 in the Handbooks of Neurology series provides comprehensive summaries of recent research on the brain and nervous system. This volume reviews alterations in vision that stem from the retina to the cortex. Coverage includes content on vision and driving derived from the large amount of time devoted in clinics to determining who is safe to drive, along with research on the interplay between visual loss, attention and strategic compensations that may determine driving suitability. The title concludes with vision therapies and the evidence behind these approaches.
Each chapter is co-written by a basic scientist collaborating with a clinician to provide a solid underpinning of the mechanisms behind the clinical syndromes.
Reviews the neurological underpinnings of visual perception disordersEncompasses the cortex to the retinaCovers functional organization, electrophysiology and subcortical visual pathwaysDiscusses assessment, diagnosis and management of visual perception disordersIncludes international experts from Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Singapore, and the UK and US
