OCT assessment of morphological changes of the optic nerve head and macula in idiopathic intracranial hypertension
Objective
To assess the morphologic changes of the optic nerve head and macula in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) with optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Methods
Data was extracted from the medical records and Stratus OCT images of IIH patients.
Results
Ninety-one eyes of 48 IIH patients were divided into 3 groups according to their clinical optic disc appearance. Average retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness was statistically different between the groups: normal optic disc/mild elevation group (N = 20) – 89 μm (95% CI, 80–98 μm), mild elevation group (N = 51) – 109 μm (95% CI, 101–117 μm), and ...
