Temporal vision loss, often referred to as "temporal visual field loss," can occur due to damage to the optic nerve or pathways in the brain responsible for processing visual information from the nasal part of the retina. Conditions such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, or lesions in the brain (like those caused by tumors) can lead to this type of vision loss. It typically results in a loss of peripheral vision on the temporal side, affecting the ability to see objects on the sides. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent further vision deterioration.
What else can I help you with?
What are the symptoms of temporal arteritis?
Temporal Arteritis is an uncommon inflammatory disease, that can be very serious. Headache, changes in vision and jaw pain can be symptoms of Temporal Arteritis.
What word means towards the nose?
When someone says "nasal" it refers to the nose or an area near the nose (e.g., nasal vs. temporal visual field).
Can right temporal lobectomy cause memory loss?
yes
What does nasal vision mean?
its when you go blind and gradually stop breathing
What is the treatment for temporal arteritis?
Oral steroids are effective treatment for TA. Treatment is critical and important to avoid vision loss. Treatment should be initiated based on clinical suspicion and should not be delayed for biopsy results.
Which bones are associated with wearing glasses?
The nasal bone is associated with wearing glasses because it holds the glasses in place.
Is Sound generally perceived in the occipital lobe of the cerebral cortex?
No, sound is generally perceived in the auditory cortex, which is located in the temporal lobe of the cerebral cortex, not the occipital lobe. The occipital lobe is primarily responsible for processing visual information.
What bones does the maxilla articulate with?
The mandibular condyle articulates with the mandibular fossae of the temporal bone.
What part of the brain regulates hearing and vision?
The temporal lobe of the brain is primarily responsible for processing auditory information related to hearing. The occipital lobe, located at the back of the brain, is primarily responsible for processing visual information related to vision.
What is temporal wasting?
Temporal wasting is atrophy of the muscles at the temples (the sides of the forehead). Sometimes bi-temporal wasting is used for wasting on both sides.
Which fibers are damaged in superior Quadrantanopia?
The fibers of the optic radiation that pass through the temporal lobe are typically affected in superior quadrantanopia. This condition results in loss of vision in the upper quadrant of the visual field in one eye.
