Description Headache is a common symptom in the paediatric neuro-ophthalmolgy clinic. It can be the harbinger of serious neurological problems like increase intracranial pressure (ICP) or secondary to benign conditions like migraine. Patients with increase ICP can have papilloedema, However, many patients with headache can also have pseudopapilloedema. This paper aims to demonstrate the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the evaluation of such patients.
