Optic Neuritis :

Optic Neuritis, as the name suggests it is defined as the inflammation of the optic nerve, which is primarily responsible to transmit the information perceived through the eyes to the brain. Optic neuritis is marked with sudden vision loss and pain that worsens with eye movement. This condition is considered to be closely associated with multiple sclerosis which is an autoimmune disease that effects the central nervous system. Optic neuritis can either occur in a combination with other infections or autoimmune disease or it can occur as an isolated condition as well.

Along with a through clinical examination diagnosis also involves tests such as optical coherence tomography. Although vision improves within few weeks, treatment mainly focuses on managing the symptoms. Early diagnosis and management is crucial in order to prevent permanent vision loss and also to address on any associated systemic issues.
