The neuro lectures are longer than the rest of the videos here at OphthoBook. That’s because there is a lot of conceptual theories involved, and I wanted to slow down and walk through this material at a managable rate. To ease the “pain” of learning neurology, I’ve broken the lecture into two seperate parts. Enjoy!
Neuro-Ophathalmology Video - Part 1
length: 24:44 minutes
This video covers eye muscle anatomy, cranial nerve palsies, and even discusses techniques for localizing lesions.
Neuro-Ophathalmology Video - Part 2
length: 27:44 minutes
This second half covers visual fields, and more specific diseases such as myasthenia gravis, optic neuropathies such as giant cell arteritis.
Thanks alot for this. Really good and simple explanations, and very good and understandable graphics.
This will help me for my clinic exam in optometry today!
i was diagnosed with 6th nerve palsy after being in a car accident it was a month before i had a carotid carvenious fitsula embolizatiom. my carotid artery was bleeding back into a vein they put platinum coilsprings to stop the bleeding. before the surgery my eye would only travel somewhat midline after surgery my eye traveled out a little further past midline i was told that the 6th nerve was damaged i want to know if this nerve heals itself on its own over time.how long what can i do to help the process and does smoking affect the healing process. my eyes go in all directions but one that doest go all the way to the right movement of my face is fine i can feel all sensations. double vision when i look to the right my right eye stops moving a little passed the mid line.like i said before the surgery of the fitsula in my artery the eye barely moved after the procedure moved a little further will my eye ever be normal again.
i can’t help but comment AGAIN & AGAIN that this is outstanding work ! i will recommend this to the med students who pass by ophthalmology, i am sure they’ll deeply appreciate it.
many thanks
Great lectures..it really helped me with my ophtho test n neuro is specially great but Dr please can you explain the visual pathway defects a bit more tht would be gr8 cos u c the hemianopias r really confusing as in what lesion will cause wat defect n which side will be affected. Again awesome teacher and lectures keep up the good work. I’ll be waiting for more lectures
thanx …. really thank u for ur work ……. great lectures from great doctors …. i hope that these lectures help me in my course

Hello, I’m an orthoptist, I really liked the presentations and the explication, so easy, doesn’t make it difficult at all, I wish I had a professor as you sir
Thanks so much, keep it up, I encourage u to do more for the science…

Great job! You are an excellent teacher.You have an innate ability to simplify some very difficult topics. I am waiting for you to cover some more topics.
Thanks so much!
I am a Taiwanese medical student who is interested in
Ophthalmology but found difficulty always in understanding
it~
Your lectures helps a lot, really!
And made me even more interested in Ophthalmology~
Million thanks to you! and Ophthobook!
DEAR DR.:
THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR AMAZING WAY
IN PRESENTING LECTURES..I’VE TOLD EVERY OPHTHALMOLOGIST,STUDENT AND BEGINNERS ABOUT THIS GREAT WEBSITE..
AS LONG AS IT HELPED ME,I WANT OTHERS TO BE HELPED TOO..
WHAT IF YOU PRESENT STRABISMUS LECTURE THE SAME WAY??
AS THIS TOPIC STILL SOMEHOW DIFFICULT FOR BEGINNERS..
I’LL BE REALLY THANKFUL
You said at start of 23rd Minute of part 1 that the Loss of hearing with horizontal diplopia 6th and 7th nerve palsy but the hearing is with 8th cranial nerve.
very good chapter….only a couple of very minor mistakes - in Adies, pupils should be dilated (not constricted as it says on slide - granted in old cases it can present as constricted pupil)
You’re amazing, these videos are tops. You’ll be happy to know you have quite a following among med students in sunny Queensland Australia.
Just noticed ? small typo at 24.30 neuro video 2 (Adie’s syndrome). PSNS constricts so with Adie’s pupil should dilate - not quite clear on the slide but you’re talking about dilated pupils so I’m sure anyone who’s listening would get your drift (probably just a good way to check we’re still thinking, eh?)
Thank you so much for your hard work. You’ve put together a great resource.
Hey these videos are great!
you are an amazing techer
picked up a little error in the 2nd neuro video
the slide on Adie’s pupil says that the pupil would be constricted when it should say it would be dilated. It is however correctly described in the audio.
dear sir,
every person who watches your videos will be so thankful to you .. and all those good wishes will definitely transform into blessings for you:)

I am preparing for MRCP(UK) PACES and I was really stressing out about the eye part of this clinical exam. Having watched your videos, I now feel much more in control - thank you very very much! I am yet to come across a better website that explains eye concepts in such an easy-to-understand way.
