An examination of patients experiencing dysfunction of the afferent visual system begins with a history of the details of the visual loss. This thorough history is often the most important part of the evaluation, because it determines the initial strategy for differential diagnostic evaluation and examination. It is essential to establish if the visual loss is monocular or binocular, if its location is central, peripheral, altitudinal, or hemianopic, and if the onset of the loss is gradual, sudden, or intermittent along with any associated symptoms
