[Value of ophthamoneurologic diagnosis in cranio-cerebral injuries of the child].
In recent years, there has been a relatively high incidence of craniocerebral traumas among children. It is essential that careful ophthalmological examinations be made in addition to a general diagnosis, which should preferably be established by surgical means, as well as neurological and roentgenological examinations. The most important criteria of examination are the determination of the absence of external injuries to the eyes, the assessment of the mobility of the eyeball, tests of pupillary reactions, and an evaluation of the eyeground. The results of reexaminations made on 108 children, who had been receiving in-patient treatment, one to five years ago, because of craniocerebral traumas of different degrees of severity, underscore the importance of ophthalmological diagnosis in this particular group of diseases.
