Neuro-ophthalmology consultations are critical to the diagnosis and management in the hospital setting. Prompt consultation prevents diagnostic errors and improves patient outcomes. The scarcity of neuro-ophthalmologists means that the increasing outpatient demand cannot be met, prompting many emergency department referrals by non–neuro-ophthalmologists.
