Can you regain vision loss due to pseudotumor cerebri?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Pseudotumor: Vision loss in pseudotumor is due to compression of the optic nerve. Recovery is the rule but if the condition is unrecognized, or lasts a very long time without treatment, then the vision may not fully recover. It is important to get the cerebrospinal fluid pressure lowered as soon as possible. A neurologist or neuro-ophthalmologist should be consulted for this.
