What do you suggest if my optician sent me for a mri scan emergency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye reflects brain: Optician maybe saw something in eye that may have suggested some increased intracranial pressure which can be secondary to blockages of CSF and tumors of brain. You could always ask optician the reason for referral. Sometimes hemorrhages can be seen in back of eye as well.
