Lecture On Olfactory & Optic Nerve Assessment: Testing, Visual Pathways & Field Defects | MBBS

This comprehensive practical session from Santiniketan Medical College & Hospital, Agartala, is essential for MBBS students preparing for clinical postings and practical vivas. We provide a step-by-step demonstration of examining the Olfactory (CN I) and Optic (CN II) nerves, integrating clinical skills with the relevant anatomy and pathophysiology.

In this lecture, we decode the visual pathway, demonstrate how to perform visual acuity and field tests, and explain the interpretation of various visual field defects—vital for high-stakes medical exams.
