papilledema/edema

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in differentiating optic disc edema (ODE) and optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) and to reveal the differential points. METHODS Comparative case series. METHODS Forty-five patients with ONHD, 15 patients with

OBJECTIVE To present a case of retrobulbar optic nerve and chiasm sarcoidosis that mimicked pseudotumor cerebri. METHODS A 34-year-old, thin, black woman presented with transient visual obscurations, normal visual acuity, bilateral optic disk edema, and enlarged blind spots. Clinical, medical, and

The authors wish to report a case of bilateral acute anterior uveitis and optic disc edema following a hemotoxic snake bite, in order to highlight the concomitant occurrence of these conditions and the potential adverse effects of anti-snake venom (ASV). A 35-year-old male was bitten by a viper at

OBJECTIVE To report that an unruptured arteriovenous malformation without hydrocephalus may manifest with bilateral optic disk edema and macular exudates. METHODS We examined an 11-year-old girl with an unruptured frontal lobe arteriovenous malformation who had decreased visual acuity, bilateral

OBJECTIVE We quantitatively investigated the peripapillary vascular morphology in patients with optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) and optic disc edema (ODE). METHODS Computer-based fundus analysis was used to investigate peripapillary vascular morphology, including length, branching, and diameter of

OBJECTIVE In this study we investigated macular morphology, including individual retinal layers, in patients with optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) and optic disc edema (ODE) compared with healthy participants, using high-resolution spectral domain optical coherence tomography

BACKGROUND The study aimed to quantify changes of the optic nerve head (ONH) during exposure to high altitude and to assess a correlation with acute mountain sickness (AMS). This work is related to the Tuebingen High Altitude Ophthalmology (THAO) study. RESULTS A confocal scanning laser

The purpose of this study was to investigate papilledema (PA) as a diagnostic criterion for the presence of antemortem or agonal cerebral edema despite normal postmortem brain swelling on postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMR) in comparison with conventional autopsy.One hundred subjects with

Two patients with visual loss after cataract extraction were found to have prominent pallid optic disc edema, peripapillary hemorrhage, and cystoid maculopathy. A diagnosis of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, with coincidental aphakic cystoid macular edema, was initially considered. The clinical

A patient with chronic, bilateral optic disc edema developed multiple systemic manifestations of POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M-protein, skin changes). A serum immunoelectrophoresis showed an abnormal serum IgG lambda protein, and urine immunoelectrophoresis revealed

Purpose: To evaluate the etiology and clinical presentation of cases with optic disc edema presenting to a tertiary eye center of Nepal. Background: The etiology of optic disc

We report the case of a patient with sarcoid granulomatous optic disc edema with optociliary shunts, normal visual acuity, and negative orbit computed tomographic studies. A literature review disclosed four cases of optociliary veins associated with sarcoid optic neuropathy, all the patients having

Optic disc edema can be an important indicator of serious neurological disease, but is poorly detected using the direct ophthalmoscope. Portable fundus photography may overcome this difficulty. The purpose of this study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity of a handheld, nonmydriatic

BACKGROUND The fluorescein angiographic criteria for differentiating optic disc drusen (ODD) from optic disc edema have been unclear. We designed a study to identify distinguishing angiographic features of each and to apply them to cases where both drusen and edema were present. METHODS A computer

OBJECTIVE To evaluate images taken with OTI-OPKO Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT; OTI-OPKO Health Inc, Miami, FL)/scanning laser ophthalmoscope (resolution of 5-8 microm) and compare them with conventional StratusOCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc, Dublin, CA) in eyes with epiretinal
