Mission Statement
The mission of the 2024 AAO-NANOS Neuro-Ophthalmology Subspecialty Day is to provide new, updated, and clinically relevant neuro-ophthalmic information that will assist the practicing ophthalmologist to identify critical findings and to differentiate them from potential distractors to make an accurate diagnosis and determine management strategies based on best practices.
Target Audience
The intended audience for this program is comprehensive ophthalmologists.
Education Level
Beginner, intermediate, and advanced concepts will be discussed to offer sufficient breadth and depth to the target audience.
Program Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
-
Recognize the strengths and weaknesses of OCT imaging in neuro-ophthalmology.
-
Differentiate the sensitivity and specificity of laboratory markers for the diagnoses of vision threatening conditions such as giant cell arteritis, neuromyelitis optica, myasthenia gravis and optic neuritis.
-
Order the correct neuro-imaging modality for various conditions involving the brain and orbit.
-
Distinguish findings on neuroimaging and correlate clinically with the presenting condition.
-
Discuss surgical approaches to the orbit.
