What Is IIH?

I have been diagnosed with IIH by my opthamologist as I had bad pappiledemia but when I had an MRI and LP they both showed as normal and my neuro wasnt convinced. My pap decreased slightly after LP and since spending 4 months on diamox 250x3 daily my pap has almost gone. Is this definitely iIH?
