increases neurological malfunctioning due to impaired axonal tracts and leads to the formation of focal lesions, known as plaques (Love, 2006;Ortiz et al., 2013). Multiple sclerosis is a disease that affects brain, spinal cord and the optic nerves. The main symptoms include fatigue, tremor,...
Since optic neuritis occurs frequently in multiple sclerosis (MS), it has been thought to herald the onset of MS in the young adult where no specific cause can be identified. This study was designed to examine the incidence of optic neuritis in the resident population of Rochester, Minn, in...
Monosymptomatic unilateral optic neuritis (ON) is a common first manifestation of multiple sclerosis (MS) in which increased numbers of autoimmune T and B cells, recognizing different myelin autoantigens including myelin basic protein (MBP) and its peptides, have been implicated in a hypothetical ...
During an attack, the optic nerve can become inflamed, a condition that is called optic neuritis. When this occurs, the nerve is not able to relay signals from the eyes to the brain very well. Symptoms Optic neuritis in multiple sclerosis usually occurs in only one eye, although it can oc...

A multicenter documentation system which includes standardized information was used on 1271 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). In 441 (34.7%) cases the optic nerve was involved at the 1st appearance of the disease, and in 212 (16.6%) subjects optic neuritis (ON) was the sole initial sign...
Horizontal saccadic and smooth pursuit eye movements were studied in 84 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and 21 patients with optic neuritis (ON). The MS patients were clinically classified as 'definite', 'probable', or 'possible'; ... JPH Reulen,EACM Sanders,LAH Hogenhuis - 《Brain》...
