👁️ Understanding MOGAD: A New Autoimmune Demyelinating Disease MOGAD (Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disease) is a newly recognized autoimmune disorder affecting the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. It causes inflammation that can lead to optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, or encephalitis-like symptoms. Diagnosis is confirmed through serum IgG autoantibodies against MOG, using cell-based assays. MOGAD is clinically distinct from multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4 antibody-associated neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), but often misdiagnosed as one of them due to overlapping symptoms. 👁 Stay Informed with the Latest in Eye Care Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn for updates on cutting-edge treatments, eye health tips, and clinic news. 📞 480.590.0505 🌐 myeyeconsultants.com #OptometryStudent #FutureOD #OptoSchool #OcularHealth #OptometryLife #EyeCareEducation #ClinicalOptometry #NeuroOptometry #LearnOptometry #OptometrySchoolTips

Did you know that vision issues can create dizziness? Honored to speak @PennMedicine on "Vision Issues after Brain Injury" for @MYBFoundation annual Brain Injury Conference. Shoutout to @Neuro_EyeDoc for inspiring me to spread the word! #NeuroOptometry #concussion #mtbi

After being diagnosed with vision problems herself, Dr. Theis decided she wanted to shift totally to #neurooptometry. She was told she'd never make a career of it, but boy did she prove those doubters wrong! You can join us at youngodconnect.com. 🧠👁️

Fun fact: I have never in my 21 years of school gotten a grade lower than a B- (organic chemistry and neurooptometry) I feel like this doesn't add to the vibe and was simply a brag Congratulations!

Post-concussion syndrome: Symptoms, treatment, and outlook 🧠👀@HeadwayUK ⁦@CedarLawPLLC⁩ #perinatal #HeadInjury #concussion #SpecialEd are linked because **we are born head first**! Persistent vision problems need #NeuroOptometry #Beyond2020 as per: medicalnewstoday.com/article…

In the first episode of this NEW SERIES host @eyeseitz talks #neurooptometry with guest Kelsey Moody-Milesky, OD. They discuss misconceptions, how #ODs in the subspecialty can support their MD colleagues, and the importance of recognizing a true emergency. hubs.ly/H0JshVm0

We’re throwing it back to May 2019 to Dr. Brenda Heinke Montecalvo’s article on neural processing and visual performance. Read how optometrists can assist patients who have sustained a neurologic injury: hubs.ly/H0vjy1q0 #optometry #neurooptometry #medicaloptometry

MOD is still young, so we can’t throw it back too far, but here’s an article from our September 2019 issue. Tanya Polec, OD, talks about when to refer your patient to a neuro-optometrist: hubs.ly/H0qh3DV0 @dryeyediva @JSchweitzerOD #optometry #eyecare #neurooptometry

Because we do not follow TWO medical protocols! 1.WE do not test for (& as thus can not diagnose & treat) #VitaminD deficiency bordering complete depletion! 2.We do not test for #ability to #read *WORDS* “At 30cms “ thus we can never refer a symptomatic Px to #NeuroOptometry 💔

While traditional pupil exams are helpful in general practice, highly specialized fields like #FunctionalNeurology and #NeuroOptometry require more sophisticated diagnostic data #MobilePupillometer #MedicallyMobile #MachineLearning #HealthTech verywellhealth.com/pupil-tes…
