Through a case-based presentation, learn to differentiate an optic neuropathy from another mimicking condition and gain insight into the clinical features and presentations more likely associated with glaucomatous vs non-glaucomatous optic neuropathy, or perhaps a combination of both.
Learning Objectives:
Upon conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:
Explain how to conduct an examination oriented to the detection of glaucomatous vs non-glaucomatous optic neuropathy.
Identify the clinical features that suggest a glaucomatous vs non-glaucomatous optic neuropathy.
Classify the differential diagnoses for potential optic neuropathy presentations.
Describe the necessary diagnostic testing for glaucomatous vs non-glaucomatous etiologies of optic neuropathy.
Explain the differences in management plan for glaucomatous vs non-glaucomatous optic neuropathies.
Discuss the possibility of overlying glaucomatous and non-glaucomatous optic neuropathies.
