Papilledema and Anemia: A Rare Association.

Papilledema is the swelling of the optic disc due to the transmission of intracranial pressure through the optic nerve. It can occur as a symptom of various intracranial pathologies that elevate the intracranial pressure. Even though anemia has been described as an association with raised intracranial pressure, the exact causal relationship between the two has not been well established in the literature.
