FIELD: medicine; ophthalmology.
SUBSTANCE: optical coherent tomography of optic nerve is accompanied with evaluation of volume of neuroretinal zonule and excavation to optic nerve area ratio. If excavation to optic nerve area ratio does not exceed 0.05, or neuroretinal zonule volume is at least 1.2 mm, or simultaneously excavation to optic nerve area ratio is within 0.05 to 0.1, and neuroretinal zonule volume is within the range 0.9 mm to 1.2 mm, papilledema is diagnosed.
EFFECT: fast and reliable papilledema diagnostics.
