intracranial hypertension Explanation: ICH may also mean "intracranial haemorrhage" in other contexts. Fundus examination is used to look for hypertension and other conditions: https://zdravoteka.sk/vysetrenia/vysetrenie-ocneho-pozadia/ "Podrobné vyšetrenie potom zahŕňa vyšetrenie zrakovej ostrosti, meranie vnútroočného tlaku..." https://www.neovizia.sk/specializovane-vysetrenia/ -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2020-10-14 16:37:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Intracranial hypertension" may not be the right answer in this context (since eye examination would determine "intraocular" rather than "intracranial" pressure. In search results "ICH" appears in connection with fundus examination (vyšetrenie očného pozadia). Fundus is the only part of the body where blood vessels may be directly observed. http://www.mojeoko.sk/slovnik-oci-zrak/ "Vyšetrenie očného pozadia – robí sa oftalmoskopom, pričom lekár pri tomto vyšetrení skontroluje očný nerv, makulu (najostrejší bod videnia), sklovec, sietnicu spolu s jemnými žilkami a jej vonkajšiu časť." https://cornea.sk/ako-prebieha-komplexne-ocne-vysetrenie/ It is therefore much more likely "ICH" stands for "ischaemic disease" (such as retinal ischaemia). "Tým, že sú cievy sietnice poškodené, sietnica nemá dostatočnú výživu, trpí nedostatkom kyslíka a vzniká ischémia. Práve v jej dôsledku sa postupne tvoria nové cievy, ktoré nie sú plnohodnotné a tým pádom praskajú a prepúšťajú krv do sklovca,“ vysvetľuje oftalmologička." https://dia.hnonline.sk/zivot-s-diabetom/533154-pozor-ocne-k... |

no signs/evidence of raised/elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) Explanation: Just to clarify the issue, "intracranial" DOES ,maker sense in the context of an eye exam. Bilateral papilledema would be a sign of increased ICP. Increased intraocular pressure is something else. |
