Description

Understand the process of phototransduction and the structure and function of the retina.
Describe common abnormalities such as strabismus, errors in refraction, and their management.
Explain visual reflexes and the interpretation of visual field defects.
Recognize the visual manifestations of multiple sclerosis and their underlying mechanisms.
Apply knowledge through analysis and discussion of a clinical case study.

Summary

Further your ophthalmology expertise with our Year 2 Teaching Part 2 session, focusing on Advanced Ophthalmology – Retina, Visual Abnormalities, and Clinical Applications. Here, we delve into the details of phototransduction, visual reflexes, and visual field defects. You'll be able to identify and manage common visual abnormalities and the visual manifestations of multiple sclerosis. Finally, sharpen your skills and apply your newfound knowledge through the examination of a relevant clinical case study.

Learning objectives

Identify, describe, and understand the anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology of the retina, with particular emphasis on the process of phototransduction.
Ability to identify common visual abnormalities such as strabismus and errors in refraction, understand their pathophysiology, and devise appropriate management strategies for these conditions.
Develop a deep understanding of visual reflexes and visual field defects, including their interpretation in a clinical context, and their implications on patient functionality and quality of life.
Recognize the visual manifestations of multiple sclerosis, understand the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms driving these changes, and analyse potential therapeutic strategies.
Apply theoretical knowledge to practical situations, and develop problem-solving skills through analysis and discussion of a complex clinical case study in advanced ophthalmology.
