[Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (case study)]. / Idiopaticheskaya vnutricherepnaya gipertenziya (klinicheskoe nablyudenie).

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a rare pathological condition that without proper therapy often results in permanent vision loss. Diagnosis of IIH is often difficult, since it is characterized by a combination of numerous specific and non-specific ophthalmological and neurological criteria. Difficulties in diagnosis significantly delay the prescription of treatment, which affects the visual prognosis. The description of this clinical case is intended to present our own experience in the diagnosis and management tactics of a patient with this pathology, which will be useful for practicing ophthalmologists.
