Overview

Classification/Staging

According to the Frisen staging, there are 6 stages of IIH based on the ophthalmoscopic signs:

stage 0

Optic disc is normal but nasal and temporal disc borders are blurred.

stage 1

Increased blurring of the nasal border of optic disc but normal temporal margins.

stage 2

Changes are increase in proportion to stage 1 with elevation of nasal nerve head and temporal border blurring.

stage 3

Changes are increase in proportion to stage 2 with elevation of both nasal and temporal disc border and increased diameter of nerve head.

stage 4

Changes are increase in proportion to stage 3 with nerve head elevation and decreased nerve cup.

stage 5

Increased anterior expansion of nerve head which becomes smooth with dome-shaped appearance.[1]
