Visual Electrodiagnostics
Visual electrophysiology is a powerful, non-invasive tool in Ophthalmology and Neurology. It provides objective information about function, complimenting psychophysical information such as VA and visual fields and the structural information of imaging/examination. It can characterise the location of dysfunction and differentiate between disorders of the retina, optic nerves, and visual pathway.
Our service
Our team provide a wide range of high quality electrodiagnostic testing to ISCEV standards. We are able to test patients of all ages, with our adult clinic at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital and paediatric clinic at Sheffield Childrens Hospital. Our patients come from not only Sheffield but the wider region of Yorkshire, Humber, and the East Midlands.
