Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension in Men
Neurol 72:304-309, Bruce,B.B.,et al, 2009
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Men with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) are twice as likely as women to develop severe visual loss. Men and women have different symptom profiles, which could represent differences in symptom expression or symptom thresholds between the sexes. Men with IIH likely need to be followed more closely regarding visual function because they may not reliably experience or report other symptoms of increased intracranial pressure.
