Retrospective clinical trial on results of optic nerve sheath decompression (ONSD) surgery for visual loss in 6 patients (7 eyes) with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Visual functions improved in 5 patients.

On the basis of our results, we believe that ONSD is safe and affective treatment of patients with IIH in vision-threatening cases after thoroughly balanced assessment of possible risks and gains.
