We conclude that only large postchiasmal lesions are likely to cause symptomatic homonymous field defects in MS, usually characterized by rapid recovery. Hemifield VEPs have a low sensitivity for the detection of postchiasmal as compared with prechiasmal abnormalities.

Influenza vaccine. Influenza vaccines, also known as flu shots or jabs, are vaccines that protect against influenza. A new version of the vaccine is developed twice a year as the influenza virus rapidly changes. While their effectiveness varies from year to year, most provide modest to high protection against influenza. They decrease the number of missed days of work by a half day on average.
