Evaluates the differential diagnosis in common neurological diseases by using the basic symptoms and neurological examination findings and the necessary diagnostic tools.Knowledge - Recalls knowledge of anatomy, physiology and histology about the eye and its appendages. Physiopathology of symptoms related to eye diseases, explains the causes and relations with other systems. Explains and interprets the common clinical findings of eye diseases. explains the general epidemiological features and preventive medicine practices related to the diseases of the eye. Traumatic diseases of the eye, glaucoma, diseases of the retina, cornea and ocular surface, lacrimal system, as well as pupillary anomalies and paralytic strabismus. Anamnesis and physical examination findings suggest as a preliminary diagnosis. directs eye patients to their specialist. explains methods, properties of essential drugs and serious side effects
