Journal ArticleDOI
Bilateral posterior ischemic optic neuropathy after spinal surgery.
George Alexandrakis,Byron L. Lam +1 more
TL;DR: Severe selective hypoperfusion of the retrobulbar optic nerves may occur after spinal surgery, and pressure to the periorbital region may be a contributing factor.
Journal Article
Concurrent visual and hearing impairment and risk of mortality: the national health interview survey
Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudotumor cerebri from cranial venous obstruction.
TL;DR: In this article, the site of cerebral venous outflow obstruction was variable and identified in three patients with computed tomography, conventional magnetic resonance imaging, and/or angiography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Michael Wall,Julie Falardeau,William A. Fletcher,Robert J. Granadier,Byron L. Lam,Reid Longmuir,Anil D. Patel,Beau B. Bruce,Hua He,Michael P. McDermott +9 more
TL;DR: Male patients, those with high-grade papilledema, and those with decreased visual acuity at baseline were more likely to experience treatment failure and should be considered for aggressive treatment of their idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the effect of visual impairment on mortality through multiple health pathways: structural equation modeling.
TL;DR: In addition to the direct link between VI and mortality, the effects of VI on general health and disability contribute to an increased risk of death.
