Primary eye care providers frequently evaluate patients with decreased vision, visual field defects, optic nerve findings, or OCT changes that can mimic glaucoma or retinal disease. However, the true cause may be neuro‑ophthalmic. In this practical, case-based session, Dr. Joey Kane, OD, will share a structured approach to deciding when a presentation is “neuro or not neuro” versus a primary glaucoma or retinal problem, and which key findings should trigger urgent escalation. Attendees will learn efficient, chair‑side tips for history-taking and exam interpretation, with a focus on common pitfalls—such as confusing optic neuropathy for glaucoma, mistaking neuro‑visual complaints for macular disease, or over‑relying on imaging without clinical correlation. The webinar will emphasize actionable triage decisions: what to do today, what can be monitored, and how to effectively communicate concern when referring. (Level: Beginner & Intermediate) Lecturer: Dr. Joey Kane, Optometrist, VA Boston, USA Language: English The webinar is intended for eye care professionals.
