TOPIC OUTLINE
Confrontation test
o Subjective
I. Visual acuity testing
o Reliable if done properly
II. Visual field testing
o Targets:
III. Visual pathway
Hand movement
IV. Visual field defects
Finger counting
V. Pupillary reactions
Objects (light, red targets)
VI. Ocular motility testing
Face to face
VII. Ophthalmoscopy
Objectives
1. Know the basic neuro-ophthalmic examination.
2. Recognize and interpret common signs of neuro-ophthalmic disorders.
Note: This is a “new” lecture for Ophtha 250 AY2014-2015. No previous transes
from 2015 and 2016 are available. First rotating in as Ophtha ICCs is Block 5-Star
of 2017.
The EYE is a window to the CNS Amsler grid is a rapid screening test used to detect central visual
field defects
“30% of sensory fibers entering the brain are via the optic nerves;
60% of intracranial diseases exhibit neuro-ophthalmological signs”
Visual field comprises all the space that can be seen at a given
instant with the eye fixating directly ahead
Visual field exam gives valuable information about the localization of
the disorder along the visual pathway
Largest field of vision: lateral side
Automated perimetry
o Objective
o Eliminate errors
o No bias by perimetrist
o Randomized stimulus
o Greater sensitivity
o Detects early field loss
o Results are reproductible
o Store results

VISUAL PATHWAY
Types of visual field testing:
o Subjective
Confrontation test
Amsler grid
o Objective
Perimetry
Figure 6. The visual pathway. (arrows from right to left) Retina Optic
Figure 2. Confrontation test Nerve Optic Chiasm Optic Tract LGB OR Occipital Cortex
o When light is moved from the good to the abnormal eye, pupil
Pre-Chiasm dilates instead of constricting
o Retina o Seen in optic nerve lesions
o Optic Nerve
Chiasm Swinging Light Test procedure
o Optic Chiasm o Dark room – pupils will be maximally dilated
Post-Chiasm o Bright stimulus – pupils will be maximally constricted
o Optic Tract o Fixate at a distance – to avoid constriction due to
o Lateral Geniculate Body accommodation
o Optic Radiation o Light moved from eye to eye
o Occipital Cortex
o Calcarine fissure
Divides the two occipital cortices
Figure 8. Visual field defects and possible site of lesion along the
optic tract
PUPILLARY REACTIONS
OPHTHALMOSCOPY
Ophthalmoscopy evaluates:
o Optic Nerve
o Vasculature
o Macula
o Retina
Normal findings in funduscopy
o Clear media, (+) ROR
o Optic disc – pinkish, distinct
o C/D – 0.3 or 0.4 Figure 15. Progression of optic disc edema. Note the loss of disc
o A:V – 2:3 or 3:4 borders until the hemorrhages
o No hemorrhages, no exudates
o Spontaneous venous pulsations Optic disc atrophy – end result of diseases or injuries to the optic
nerve
o On funduscopy, the disc will be very pale in color (light pink, light
yellow)

FMAC: ang bilis ng panahon! :)) ang daming nangyayari! Pero kakayanin lahat! Go
team!

Padayon Medisina.
Boom #PaMED!
MANDERKS: hi block 5 star!! First legit ICC rotation.. haha!! Sama sama tayo
through thick and thin sa rotations.. kayang kaya!!
Figure 14. Funduscopic findings in papilledema. Bilateral; indistinct 2017, support din natin ang trp!! Ilang days na lang, kelangan na nating magtriple
disc borders; hyperemic, swollen disc; obliterated central cup; venous effort para malagay din ung class natin sa perpetual trophy.. hehe..
distention; hemorrhages; exudates; cotton wool spots; no spontaneous
venous pulsations Hi din sa mga groups!! And sa newly clingy management group!! Whohoo!! :D
