A failure to diagnose was the basis for most of a series of 35 malpractice suits filed against ophthalmologists and other physicians. All of these cases presented problems in neuro-ophthalmologic diagnosis. Selected summaries illustrate typical diagnostic pitfalls. "Creative" consultation reports may be one effective prophylactic measure against such legal actions.
