I'm so sorry about your brother's brain tumor. You will want more specific help and that would be from a neurologist on his care teach and/or his neurosurgeon who would know the particulars.

I am sorry for your brother's loss of vision. Opthalmologist referral and review of the examination with the specialist is recommended. A second opinion is often helpful in discussing options.
