Headache & Migraine
Our physicians assess and treat headaches and migraines associated with neurological conditions, working closely with the Comprehensive Headache Center.
Neuro-Ophthalmology
Our neuro-ophthalmologists and colleagues in the Division of Ophthalmology specialize in eye care and surgery, diagnosing and treating disorders involving eye movements and visual pathways. Several neurological conditions affect the areas of the brain that control eye movements and relate to vision. When these areas are disturbed, symptoms may become debilitating and require specialized care.
