Pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK) is a post-operative condition that can occur as a complication of cataract extraction surgery and intraocular lens placement.
May be manifest in the immediate post-operative period or symptoms may not present for many years.
Ischemic optic neuropathy constitutes one of the major causes of blindness or seriously impaired vision among the middle-aged and elderly population.
Ischemic optic neuropathy is due to acute ischemia of the optic nerve. it can be classified into two, depending upon the part of the optic nerve involved:
1.Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION)
-AION is due to acute ischemia of the front (anterior) part of the optic nerve (also called optic nerve head), which is supplied mainly by the posterior ciliary arteries.
-AION is divided into two types, depending on what causes it:
1.Arteritic AION: This is the most serious type and is due to a disease called giant cell arteritis or temporal arteritis.
2. Non-arteritic AION: This is the usual, most common type, with many different causes but not associated with giant cell arteritis.
2.Posterior ischemic optic neuropathy (PION). -
-PION is a much less common type. It is due to acute ischemia of the back (posterior) part of the optic nerve, located some distance behind the eyeball; this part of the optic nerve is NOT supplied by the posterior ciliary arteries

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Definition
▪ Passive hydrostatic non inflammatory swelling of
optic nerve head secondary to raised intracranial
pressure.
▪ Usually bilateral ; may be unilateral.
▪ Optic disc swelling in the absence of raised
intracranial pressure is referred to as optic disc edema.
3. Pathophysiology
Disturbance in axoplasmic flow causing stasis
swelling of axons and leakage.
Increased intracranial pressure(ICT) is
along subarachnoid space with optic nerve sheath
acting as a tourniquet.
Increased ICT leads to increased optic nerve
tissue pressure which alters pressure gradient
resulting in stasis
7. Causes(Bilateral)
Space occupying lesions.
Blockage of CSF flow.
Reduction in CSF resorption.
Increased CSF production.
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.
Focal or diffuse cerebral edema.
Reduction in size of Cranial Vault.
Vitamin A toxicity.
10. Symptoms(General)
Headache more in the morning, intensifies
head movement, coughing or straining.
Projectile vomiting.
Loss of consciousness/ generalized motor
rigidity.
11. Signs(Mechanical)
Elevation of the optic disc.
Blurring of the optic disc margin.
Filling in of the physiological cup.
Edema of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer.
Retinal or choroidal folds(Paton’s lines)
Macular fan.
12. Signs(Vascular)
Hyperemia of the optic disc.
Vascular congestion.
Peripapillary haemorrhage.
Exudates in the disc or peripapillary area.
Nerve fiber layer infarcts.
14. Early Papilledema
Disc elevation.
Venous distention and
tortuosity.
Obscuration of the normal disc margin and
overlying
retinal vessels.
Absence of spontaneous venous pulsations
15. Established Papilledema
Marked elevation of nerve head with blurring of
margins.
Engorged tortous venules. Peripapillary
hemorrhages.
Cotton wool spots.
Hard exudates over the disc and macular area.
16. Chronic Papilledema(Classical “Champagne cork
appears of disc)
disc hyperemia decreases and disc
appears pale in color.
Optociliary shunts and drusen like deposits
be present on the disc.
High water mark.
17. Atropic Papilledema
Onset of optic disc pallor (secondary optic
atrophy) .
Decrease in disc haemorrhage.
Narrowing of blood vessels
and their ensheating.
Optic disc appears dirty white and blurred due
glial
reaction.
19. Grade 0
Mild nasal NFL elevation.
Rare obscuration of a portion
of major vessel
(usually at superior pole)
20. Grade 1 (Very early Papilledema)
Obscuration of nasal border of disc
Normal temporal disc margin
21. Grade 2 (Early papilledema)
Obscuration of all the disc borders
Elevation of nasal border
No major vessel obscuration
22. Grade 3 (Moderate papilledema)
Obscuration of all borders
Increased diameter of optic
nerve head
Obscuration of segment of major blood
as they pass disc margin.
23. Grade 4 (Marked papilledema)
Elevation of entire nerve head
Obscuration of all the borders
A segment of major vessel obscured on the disc
24. Grade 5 (Severe papilledema)
Anterior extension of optic nerve head
Total obscuration of vessel on disc surface
Obliteration of optic cup
25. Histopathological Findings
Acute disc edema
Accumulation of extracellular fluid in and
to retinal lamina cribrosa, with enlargement of
subarachnoid space with stretching.
Engorgement of axons occurs in prelaminar
portion.
26. Sensory retinal changes
- Displacement of retina away
from optic disc.
- Buckling of the outer layers of retina.
- Displacement of rods and cones away from their
anchor near Bruch’s membrane.
- Serious RD in peripapillary area
27. Electron microscopy of axons
- Axonal swelling and accumulation of
mitochondria.
- Mitochondrial swelling and disruption.
- Disruption of fascicles of the microtubules.
28. Chronic disc edema
Degenerative and fibrotic changes in both
anterograde and retrograde manner. (hence
atrophy may occur anywhere from retinal nerve
fiber layer to optic nerve)
29. Visual field changes
Enlargement of blind spot.
Earliest loss of visual field commonly involves
inferior nasal quadrant.
Peripheral concentric constriction.
30. Relative scotoma (first to green and red).
Complete blindness.
In all cases visual field changes should be
monitored carefully and decompression to be done
before peripheral constriction sets in.
31. Differential diagnosis of
Papilledema
Papillitis.
Pseudopapilledema.
- Drusen of optic disc.
- High Hypermetropia (crowded
nerve fibers at disc). - AION.
Optic neuritits.
Tilted optic disc.
Hypoplastic disc.
Myelinated nerve fibers.
39. Investigations
History and physical examination including
pressure measurement.
Ophthalmic examination - In addition to fundus
examination, assessment of visual acuity, pupillary
examination, ocular motility & alignment, and
visual fields.
MRI with or without contrast is the best
investigation of choice.
40. CT Scan
To rule out
- Intracranial lesions.
- Obstructive hydrocephalus.
Can detect
- Subarachnoid, epidural
& subdural hemorrhages. - Acute infarctions.
- Cerebral edema.
Contraindication for MRI
42. Fundus Fluoroscence Angiography(FFA)
Early Phase
disc capillary dilation
Dye leakage spots Microaneurysm over the disc
Late Phase
Leakage of dye beyond disc margin Pooling of dye
around the disc
43. TREATMENT:
Treatment directed at underlying cause.
Timely intervention has a remarkable effect on
prognosis.
(unless nerve is irreversibly damaged)
Vision recovery is faster then subsidence of
fundus features.
44. Brain Tumor
- Craniotomy to remove tumor.
Resolution of papilledema within 6-8weeks.
45. Pseudotumor Cerebri
- Medical
Acetazolamide
Oral Glycerol
Corticosteroids
