While waiting to assist a neurologist who is about to perform a lumbar puncture, she asks you to conduct an eye exam on the patient. Why? Because a CSF infection would be revealed by a discoloration in the anterior chamber of the eye. Because slowness in pupillary dilation would indicate reduced CSF pressure. Because papilledema would indicate increased CSF pressure. Because retinal arterial sprouting would indicate arterial leakage into the CSF. Because swelling of the ophthalmic veins would indicate increased CSF pressure.
