The main danger from Intracranial Hypertension is that the increase fluid in the brain puts pressure on the optic nerves and causes swelling - and potentially permanent damage to the eyes. Over the past 3ish years, that pressure has been consistent. When I was admitted a few weeks ago it was because the optician saw the the pressure had increased, there was blurring of the optical discs and my pupils were very slow to react to light. I’ve had blurred vision for several weeks now, and my visual fields test last week, which tests peripheral vision, I felt went badly as I didn’t see any of the things I should see at the bottom of my vision in my left eye. But I haven’t had the results yetOriginally Posted by Flo
