Peripapillary alterations in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.

Purpose: To evaluate the peripapillary area in eyes of patients with Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (iNPH) before and after shunt surgery.

Methods: Twenty iNPH patients were prospectively recruited. Enhance depth imaging-optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) was performed to image the peripapillary region.

Open-angle glaucoma in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus before and after ventriculo-peritoneal shunt surgery: an interventional prospective study.

Objective: To assess the frequency of open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in Caucasian patients affected by idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) prior to ventriculo-peritoneal shunt surgery, and to evaluate the progression of optic nerve damage one-year post-surgery.

Methods: Thirty-five consecutive patients diagnosed with iNPH were prospectively recruited between November 2021 and June 2023. Assessments included visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), macular ganglion cells complex (GCC) thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL), visual field test, central corneal thickness (CCT), axial length (AL) and corneal hysteresis (CH).
