Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To correlate the change in ONSD with change in Head position.Timepoint: ONSD measured 10 minutes after oro trachea intubation(O1) ONSD measured after head positioning using head pins (O2)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To correlate the emergence time from anaesthesia with neck angle and ONSDTimepoint: Time measured from point of stopping all the anaestehtic agents to eyeopening of the patient.
