Our client reported visual disturbances to optometrist who failed to recognize the significance of the problem and to refer our client to an ophthalmologist. One year later an MRI revealed a brain tumor. Emergency surgery was performed, but it was too late. Our client has permanent total loss of vision in right eye, and limited vision in left eye. Settlement was reached prior to trial.
