Abstract：
:Pituitary tumors manifest with a variety of unique localizing signs and symptoms that neurosurgeons and neuro-ophthalmologists must readily identify. Visual disturbances may be the presenting complaint. Loss of central visual acuity, visual field deficits, and mechanisms of diplopia are discussed with case examples used to highlight each.
