Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is a potentially life-threatening emergency. In children, it is most often a complication of traumatic brain injury, hydrocephalus, brain tumors, intracranial infections, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, metabolic and structural causes. Successful management of children with elevated ICP requires prompt recognition and therapy directed at both reducing ICP and reversing its underlying cause

Biometric system works on the basis of recognition of patterns. There are various existing biometric system for identification such as fingerprinting, iris and retinal vessels pattern. We present the anatomical morphology of optic nerve transverse section as one of the additional unique biometric signature in human beings.

RAPDx Pupil Expanded diagnostics: An Automated Pupillograph quantifying pupillary responses
Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON), following blunt or penetrating injuries results in permanent visual loss. While projectiles or other sharp objects injure the optic nerve directly1-2, the most common form of traumatic optic neuropathy is indirect and, as a result of concussive force to the head, particularly the forehead. It has been reported 0.5% to 5% of all closed head trauma
