Abstract:
Multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that commonly presents with ocular manifestations. These ocular manifestations include vision loss and optomotor deficit. Treatment modalities should include treatment of the systemic disease as well as the ocular disease. New treatment protocol suggests that the best way to treat optic neuritis is with IV methylprednisolone, unless there is some serious contraindication for the patient. The use of interferon and cyclosporin as well as other anti-inflammatory agents may be useful in the future.
