Subspecialist ophthalmologists, neurologists and neurosurgeons work collaboratively to provide superior care for patients with neurologic diseases that impact vision and ocular motility, including optic neuritis, cranial neuropathies and brain tumors that compress the anterior visual pathways.

Neurosurgeons specializing in aneurysm repair and oculoplastic surgeons work in tandem to provide a unique, minimally-invasive option for aneurysm repair-- surgery done through a small incision in the crease of the eyelid. Allegheny General Hospital is among an elite group of medical centers nationwide offering this innovative approach, which results in quicker recovery and outstanding cosmetic results after surgery.
