How to Find A Doctor
The Pseudotumor Cerebri Support Network recommends that all people with pseudotumor cerebri see a neuro-ophthalmologist on a regular basis. A neuro-ophthalmologist physician has the expertise to monitor vision in detail and is qualified to perform Optic Nerve Sheath Decompression (ONSD) surgery if needed.
We believe that neuro-ophthalmologists have the greatest experience with PTC and can offer current, up-to-date knowledge.
NANOS (The North American Neuro-Ophthalmologist Society)
can refer you to a qualified, experienced doctor in your area.
