A neuro-optometric assessment is best performed by an optometrist who has been residency-trained in neuro-optometry. Dr. Johnson is the only optometrist in Idaho with this advanced training in neuro-optometry.
The types of patient that should have a neuro-optometric assessment include those with a history of: traumatic brain injury, concussion, stroke, chronic inflammation within the brain, neuropathy secondary to systemic disease (such as diabetes), tumor or other space occupying lesion within the brain, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and other conditions that can progress to affect the nervous system.
