complaining of difficulties with his vision, particularly atnight The blurred vision is primarily in the right and leftnight. The blurred vision is primarily in the right and leftperipheral fields. He has myopia and wears correctivelenses.The physical examination reveals visual acuity ofp y y20/100 bilaterally with visual field deficits on the right andleft periphery.

In The ClinicIn The ClinicInterruption of the visual pathway at any level will cause a defect in
In The ClinicIn The Clinicthe appropriate part of the visual field . For example, a tiny lesion inthe retina would result in a blind spot (scotoma) in that eye, whereasa similar lesion in the striate cortex would produce correspondinga similar lesion in the striate cortex would produce correspondingscotomas in both eyes. Interruption of the optic nerve on one sideproduces blindness in that eye. Damage to the optic nerve fibers ash i h i hi l i l f i i i b h lthey cross in the optic chiasm results in loss of vision in both temporalfields of vision; this condition is known as bitemporal hemianopsiaand occurs because the crossing fibers originate from ganglion cellsand occurs because the crossing fibers originate from ganglion cellsin the nasal halves of each retina. A lesion of the entire optic tract,LGN, visual radiation, or visual cortex on one side causesh h i i hi h i l f i i i th tihomonymous hemianopsia, which is loss of vision in the entirecontralateral visual field. Partial lesions result in partial visual fielddefects. For example, a lesion in the lingual gyrus causes an upperp , g gy pphomonymous quadrantanopsia, which in this case is loss of visionin the contralateral, upper visual field.
