To our knowledge, this review represents the largest series of patients who have undergone ONSD for any indication. Our data are consistent with current literature supporting ONSD as a safe and effective procedure for IIH. Other indications for ONSD, such as progressive visual field loss associated with OND, warrant further study. Regardless of the indication, complications following ONSD with the technique described in this report are infrequent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
