Abstract
Papilledema can cause visually-significant optic nerve head (ONH) damage. This can be hard to detect in children who cannot reliably perform visual fields. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been used to objectively grade the amount of swelling in papilledema, however, there is no objective clinical tool to differentiate resolving papilledema from superimposed optic atrophy
