In this episode of The Eye-Q Podcast, I speak with neurosurgeon Dr. Raj Shrivastava, MD, about how brain tumors can sometimes show up through vision changes, headaches, hormone symptoms, or loss of smell. 

We discuss benign skull-based tumors, pituitary tumors, when to seek care, why guided testing matters, and how modern neurosurgery now focuses on effective treatment with quality of life in mind.
