Description |
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a challenging disorder with increasing incidence due to the rising burden of obesity. Despite the clinical findings and testing modalities available to diagnose and follow nerve swelling, few findings can sensitively indicate the trajectory of these patients. This, in part, is due to the fact that there can be marked delay between normalization of ICP levels and resolution of RNFL swelling, as detected by clinical exam or optical coherence tomography (OCT). Tortuosity of the retinal veins has been shown to increase in papilledema and subsequently decrease within 1 hour of ICP lowering (1). |
