| Description |
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) frequently manifests as papilledema associated with visual loss. Recent studies suggest that higher intraocular pressure (IOP) may counteract the effect of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) at the level of the lamina cribosa, possibly mitigating the damage to axonal transport and subsequent visual function. The current study aimed to test the hypothesis that eyes with higher IOP are associated with superior visual function in those with papilledema secondary to IIH. |
