Description: NCI2016_NICHD_1602D:Swelling of the optic disc secondary to increased intracranial pressure.|NCI2016_NCI-GLOSS_1602D:Swelling around the optic disk, the area where the optic nerve (the nerve that carries messages from the eye to the brain) enters the eyeball. Papilledema occurs when increased brain pressure caused by tumors or other problems results in swelling of the optic nerve.|NCI2016_CTCAE_1602D:A disorder characterized by swelling around the optic disc.|NCI2016_02D:Swelling around the optic disc, usually due to increased intracranial pressure or pressure on the optic nerve by a tumor.|MSH2017_2016_08_12:Swelling of the OPTIC DISK, usually in association with increased intracranial pressure, characterized by hyperemia, blurring of the disk margins, microhemorrhages, blind spot enlargement, and engorgement of retinal veins. Chronic papilledema may cause OPTIC ATROPHY and visual loss. (Miller et al., Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, 4th ed, p175)|HPO2016_07_04:Papilledema refers to edema (swelling) of the optic disc secondary to any factor which increases cerebral spinal fluid pressure. [HPO:probinson]|CSP2006:swelling of the optic disk, usually in association with increased intracranial pressure, characterized by hyperemia, blurring of the disk margins, microhemorrhages, blind spot enlargement, and engorgement of retinal veins.
