Welcome to USA IIH

On our USA IIH Blog, we aim to provide patients with the latest up to date knowledge regarding IIH! This includes information on current and new treatments, long-term outcomes with this disease, new insights into the causes of IIH, management of IIH, and more. 

Specifically, we will be providing blog updates after the North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society Conference. This is an organization for neuro-ophthalmologists and scientists where IIH is thoroughly discussed. As one of the most common seen in neuro-ophthalmology, IIH is highlighted during this meeting and new insights shared. We want to share these insights with you too!

In the future, we hope to expand USA IIH by sharing ways patients and family members can participate in IIH research.
