Neuro-Ophthalmology is a journal of clinical and fundamental research relating to all aspects of neuro-ophthalmology. Its purpose is to provide an outlet for international research and to communicate its foundings to the readers. Neuro-Ophthalmology publishes original papers on diagnostic methods in neuro-ophthalmology such as visual fields, CT scanning and electro-physiology; the visual system such as the retina, oculomotor system, pupil, neuro-ophthalmic aspects of the orbit; and related fields such as migraine and ocular manifestations of neurological diseases. The journal invites several types of contributions divided into sections.

Neuro-Ophthalmology contains the following sections:

Editorials:
Highlighting and discussing clinical scientific problems or specific socio-professional questions and emphasize relevant clinical research.
Trends and developments:
Announcing developments, with a basic but mainly clinical interest, informing about new approaches or new advances in a thought-provoking manner with explanation of fundamental scientific concepts.
Clinical Research:
Articles with interesting clinico-pathological confrontations allowing better insight to orientate, select and order new or even old tests.
Laboratory Reports:
Justifying how to improve treatment and prevention.
Case Reports:
Describing new signs and symptoms in routine cases as well as unique cases: the latter may appear to be more important than series of experiments, especially as the case has been fully explored and basically documented.
Reviews:
Collaborators and representatives of expert neuro-ophthalmological schools periodically formulate reliable and full information on a selected topic in a 'state of the art' article. Contributions in which currently accepted standards as well as exceptional features for the routine practice are discussed, will be accepted. The articles should provide the reader efficient pathogenetic approaches to symptoms and signs with alternative therapeutic management and their explanation. Genetic counselling may be included.
Letters to the Editor:
Demonstrating that neuro-ophthalmology is alive and of interest to all members of the medical profession because criticism and the appropriate answers teach that truth is a temporary error. It may mean contact for the isolated but dedicated practitioner who may have brilliant ideas.
