There are limited longitudinal data evaluating outcomes in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). We aimed to evaluate the long-term a real-world cohort of patients with IIH and sought establish prognostic factors.A prospective study was conducted over 9 years (2012-2021). Data included demographics disease status. All consenting were recruited. Visual visual acuity, Humphrey field optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging measurements. Headache frequency, severity, impact noted....
Abstract Purpose Microbial keratitis (MK) is the most common non-surgical ophthalmic emergency admission in UK. However, few prospective health-economic studies of MK have been performed, and no specific healthcare resources group (HRG) code exists. This study designed to determine feasibility a data collection tool derived from microbiology ophthalmology (MOG) clinical record form, enable quantification direct costs inpatient care, as well capture epidemiological relating outcomes MK....
'Photopsia' describes the symptom of visual disturbances that are typically flash-like, sudden in onset and brief, occurring without light entering eye. Patients reporting photopsia often pose a diagnostic challenge, given wide range possible neurological ophthalmological causes. We review common causes photopsia, discuss assessment workup this symptom, stress importance close interdisciplinary liaison to help with its diagnosis management. patient acute zonal occult outer retinopathy...
Investigating potential cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt malfunction can be a challenge. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), non-invasive imaging technique, is used to monitor changes at the optic nerve head in papilloedema. Conventional teaching suggests that presence of atrophy may not re-swell response relapse raised intracranial pressure (ICP).A retrospective case series three patients who had prior CSF diversion surgery for idiopathic cranial hypertension (IIH) presented demonstrating...
Intraorbital ophthalmic artery (OA) aneurysms are rare. They can be asymptomatic or present with visual disturbances, exophthalmos and headaches. We a case of 57-year-old man who presented reduced vision, diplopia exophthalmos. A carotid angiogram identified right OA aneurysm. Due to the low risk rupture patient’s comorbidities including cardiac renal impairment, conservative approach was followed. few weeks post presentation, vision optic nerve function had improved. This reiterates...

Cotton wool spots (CWSs) are a known clinical finding in giant cell arteritis (GCA) when it presents with visual loss secondary to arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy. To our knowledge single CWS, prior is unique presentation for cranial GCA the English language literature. Clinicians should evaluate all patients amaurosis fugax and presence of even one cotton patch prompt further evaluation including either ultrasound and/or temporal artery biopsy. A 74-year-old Caucasian woman...

A 71-year-old man presented to the emergency department with bilateral blurred optic discs, referred by his optometrist following a routine eye test. He had no visual or headache symptoms. Visual acuity was 20/20 bilaterally; funduscopy concurred optometry findings. Investigations for presumed papilledema were initially interpreted as normal (CT head/lumbar puncture). In clinic, optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging identified disc drusen (ODD) (figure 1).
