Hydrocephalus is a condition in which cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain's ventricles, causing increased intracranial pressure that can lead to brain injury, cognitive difficulties, physical disability, and in some cases vision problems. Hydrocephalus qualifies for NDIS when it causes permanent and significant functional impairment, which varies considerably depending on age of onset and treatment outcomes. Supports commonly include occupational therapy, physiotherapy, nursing, and daily living assistance.
