Our objective was to evaluate whether there is a decrease in optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) with a reduction in intracranial pressure after spinal anaesthesia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Patients were randomised by a computer-generated randomisation table to receive spinal anaesthesia (Group S) or peripheral nerve block (Group P) after assessing their eligibility for the anaesthesia procedure as per the protocol. The ONSD was measured in the preoperative period and again at 4 h and 24 h after the anaesthetic, both in the supine and sitting positions, along with haemodynamic parameters. Continuous variables such as age, height, weight, mean arterial pressures, and ONSD were expressed as mean [standard deviation (SD)] [95% confidence interval (CI)] and compared using the student\u2019s\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">t<\/jats:italic>\n                      -test.
