The maximum number of cases was around 5 years (41.6%).The number of cases in males were more than in females (63.8%vs 36.1%) .The posterior segment findings were papilledema (44.4%), optic disc hyperemia (52.7%),and retinal hemorrhages(3%).Conclusions: Analysis of posterior segment findings helps in early detection and preventing the sequalae and complications and therefore helps in saving the eye.
