LESIONS OF VISUAL PATHWAY || SCOTOMAS EXPLAINED|| Junctional scotoma|| HOMONYMOUS HEMIANOPIA

Welcome to insight ophthalmology!
The video discusses in detail about the visual field defects arising due to lesions of the visual pathway. The difference between congruous and incongruous field defects is explained. and also the difference between HOMONYMOUS and heteronymous defects

the video explains sequentially the defects arising due to optic nerve lesions, optic tract lesions, lesions of the lateral geniculate body , optic radiation and visual cortex.
The video also explains the fancy terms like JUNCTIONAL SCOTOMA, " PIE IN THE SKY ", and " PIE ON THE FLOOR".
The video explains in detail the macular sparing defects and macula involving field defect seen in visual cortex lesions.

"INSIGHT OPHTHALMOLOGY" is run and managed by Dr Amrit Sahil Panjwani ( MBBS, MS ophthalmology). WE hope the video is useful to you.
