简要总结
Several studies have investigated factors associated with visual deterioration in BIIP patients. Severe papilledema, delayed diagnosis, high CSF opening pressure, obesity, and visual field defects have been associated with poor prognosis.
Optical Coherence Tomography has emerged as a valuable tool for monitoring retinal nerve fiber layer changes and detecting optic nerve damage. MRV abnormalities, particularly transverse sinus stenosis, have also gained increasing attention.
Recent literature emphasizes the importance of multidisciplinary management involving neurosurgeons, neurologists, ophthalmologists, and radiologists.

结局指标
主要结局
visual outcome.
时间窗: 6 months
* Visual Acuity (VA): Best-corrected visual acuity using the Snellen chart (converted to LogMAR for statistical analysis). * Funduscopy: Grading of papilledema using the Frisén Scale (Grades 0-5). * Visual Field Testing: Automated perimetry (Humphrey Visual Field, 24-2 or 30-2 program) to detect blind spot enlargement or peripheral field loss Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): Measuring Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) thickness and total macular volume to objectively quantify axonal swelling.
