actually your eyes and ears are connected as well--particularly your eyes.

As I understand it, peering into your eyes deeply(with an opthalmoscope), doctors can look at the only part of the brain visible without opening your skull.

That is one way to detect increased pressure in your brain without having to insert a pressure monitor through the skull

Sure happy about that!
