Multiple sclerosis (MS) commonly affects the central nervous system, often causing neuro-ophthalmologic issues. This review details MS, its visual complications like optic neuritis, and assessment technologies.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Ophthalmology

Background:

  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a prevalent central nervous system demyelinating disease.
  • Neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms are frequent in MS patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the pathogenesis, epidemiology, and classification of MS.
  • To detail neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations in MS.
  • To discuss visual function assessment technologies and management strategies for initial demyelinating events.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of pathogenesis, epidemiology, and classification of MS.
  • Detailed description of neuro-ophthalmologic abnormalities.
  • Discussion of current and emerging visual function assessment technologies.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • Neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations are common in MS.
  • Acute demyelinating optic neuritis and internuclear ophthalmoplegia are key examples.
  • Various technologies aid in assessing visual function.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding MS pathogenesis, epidemiology, and classification is crucial.
  • Prompt evaluation and management of optic neuritis and clinically isolated syndromes are vital.
  • Technological advancements improve visual function assessment in MS.
