Thinking along the lines of this:

but clinical appearance would be a large factor.

Hi OPTIMAL,
Apologies on the delay in sharing some of these. I have simply not had the
chance.
I've attached a sample of the right eye testing I performed. Interested in
any responses.
The second potential IIH (drusen and or IIH) patient comes in on the 30th.
The MD requested IV vs. oral.

Tim,
Yes, I'm over thinking it.

Why not start with autofluorescence? That’s what our docs do here. That
usually answers the question. On rare occasions they may also order a B-scan.
I haven’t done an FA for disc drusen for ages.

My satellite office is being sought out by the Riley Hospital ophthalmology
team for help with pt. testing. This is a personal accomplishment for me.
Really proud, and humbled.
Two upcoming visits:
14 year old. Weight: 100lb Working diagnosis: IIH, ON drusen
13 year old. Weight: 100lb Working Dx: ON drusen
My prescription of testing OU [stricly Spectralis FA &/ or Cirrus 5000]
would involve:
Fasting 2 hours prior
Spectralis OCT ON - ONH button [73 sec., 60ym] art at 9
ON photos - IR 30degree, RF//BR 30 deg., FAF 30 & 20 degrees
FA oral, using 10% AK-FLUOR
convert weight for admin. using referenced calculations. i.e. 2 vials 10%
5mL, into 3.5 oz. apple juice.
start timer upon pat. consuming. At 2 minutes start FA using 30 degree
lens, laser at 95% sensitivity. Acquire images every 3 minutes until 15
min. So OU at 2, 5, 8, 11, 14mins.
Any advice OPTIMAL? Please!
I don't see any reason to choose IV over oral.?
Thanks,
