Early clinical and subclinical visual evoked potential and Humphrey's visual field defects in cryptococcal meningitis

Cryptococcal induced visual loss is a devastating complication in survivors of cryptococcal meningitis (CM). Early detection is paramount in prevention and treatment. Subclinical optic nerve dysfunction in CM has not hitherto been investigated by electrophysiological means. We undertook a prospectiv...
