Association between Optical Coherence Tomography Measurements and Clinical Parameters in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To correlate optical coherence tomography (OCT) measurements with clinical parameters in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted with 22 patients with IIH and 11 controls. All participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmological examination followed by spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) and standard automated perimetry using the 30-2 program of the Humphrey visual field analyzer. Correlations between ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, as measured by SD-OCT, and clinical parameters were assessed using generalized estimating equations.

Result

The mean age of the participants was 35.0 ± 10.83 years. The groups were similar regarding age, but were significantly differen
