ANZAN Webinar: An Eye on the Eye in Neurological Disease

Advances in imaging technology, coupled with greater accessibility, have positioned the eye and visual pathways as a valuable tool for understanding neurological disease and guiding management.

Through a case-based approach, this session will offer a practical clinical update on three frequently encountered presentations: idiopathic intracranial hypertension, optic neuritis, and amaurosis fugax.

This session is designed for a general audience, with no specialist prior knowledge required.
