How should visual function monitoring be performed and interpreted in surgery for suprasellar tumors?

CONCLUSIONS: OFR has a diagnostic element in the visual field, in which the maximal potential was recorded on the opposite side of the stimulus with monocular stimulation. Unambiguous determination required stimulation of different intensities in both eyes or 1 eye and multiple recording electrodes placed in the occiput. Monitoring the OFR provides real-time alerts, making it a valuable tool for visual function evaluation in suprasellar surgery.PMID:38608298 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.JNS232118
