optic neuritis/nikotin

The vasopressin test gave pathological results in 12 cases of optic atrophy and normal results in three cases. One of the patients with a pathological response had Leber's disease and three had tobacco-alcholic amblyopia, while in the rest the optic atrophy was of uncertain origin. In the cases with

Only 20 patients with optic neuritis of unknown aetiology could be collected in Bombay over a period of two and a half years. Only six of them were smokers and only three (one a non-smoker) had bilateral centrocaecal scotomata similar to those found in tobacco amblyopia. In 11 untreated patients the

Photopic spectral sensitivities for a foveal target on a white background are measured for 18 normal eyes, and the results are explained in terms of the function of retinal ganglion cells. Averaged results for diseases such as glaucoma, optic atrophy, tobacco amblyopia, and retrobulbar neuritis are

BACKGROUND Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy is associated with point mutations in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) that appear to be pathogenic for this disease. These mutations affect nucleotide positions 3460, 11,778 and 14,484. METHODS We reviewed the clinical and molecular genetic

Chiasmal syndromes (characterized by bitemporal field defects, decrease of vision and simple optic atrophy) are not only caused by tumors within the chiasmal region, but also occur in inflammatory, toxic, demyelinizing and hereditary-atrophic processes of the chiasm, respectively the optic nerve.
