Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) is a non-invasive neurophysiological test used to assess the functional integrity of the visual pathways from the eyes to the visual cortex of the brain. The test records the brain's electrical responses to visual stimuli, helping detect abnormalities affecting the optic nerves and visual pathways, even before symptoms become severe.

When is VEP Recommended?

Your doctor may recommend a VEP test if you have symptoms suggesting disorders of the optic nerve or visual pathways.

• Blurred or reduced vision without an obvious eye disease
• Suspected optic nerve disorders or optic neuritis
• Evaluation of Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
• Unexplained visual disturbances or vision loss
• Assessment of neurological conditions affecting visual pathways

Conditions Diagnosed

VEP helps diagnose and monitor disorders involving the optic nerves and central visual pathways.

• Optic Neuritis
• Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
• Optic Nerve Compression
• Visual Pathway Disorders
• Other Neurological Conditions Affecting Vision

Benefits of VEP

• Evaluates the function of the optic nerves and visual pathways
• Detects visual pathway abnormalities at an early stage
• Supports diagnosis of neurological disorders such as Multiple Sclerosis
• Helps monitor disease progression and treatment response
• Safe, painless, and non-invasive diagnostic procedure
