  2. Optic neuritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_neuritis

    Major symptoms are sudden loss of vision (partial or complete), sudden blurred or "foggy" vision, and; pain on movement of the affected eye. [4] [5] [2]Many patients with optic neuritis may lose some of their color vision in the affected eye (especially red), with colors appearing subtly washed out compared to the other eye.

  3. Optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_neuropathy

    Symptoms of optic neuritis in the affected eye include pain on eye movement, sudden loss of vision, and decrease in color vision (especially reds). Optic neuritis, when combined with the presence of multiple demyelinating white matter brain lesions on MRI, is suspicious for multiple sclerosis.

  4. Autoimmune optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoimmune_optic_neuropathy

    It presents with visual loss and signs of optic nerve dysfunction, such as loss of color vision, afferent pupil defect, and sometimes abnormalities of the optic disc. The clinical features of AON can be variable and present in several unilateral or bilateral forms: Acute anterior or retrobulbar optic neuritis sometimes associated with pain.

  5. Chronic relapsing inflammatory optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_relapsing...

    Chronic relapsing inflammatory optic neuropathy (CRION) is a form of recurrent optic neuritis that is steroid responsive and dependent. [1] Patients typically present with pain associated with visual loss. [1] CRION is a clinical diagnosis of exclusion, and other demyelinating, autoimmune, and systemic causes should be ruled out. [3]

  6. Toxic and nutritional optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_and_nutritional...

    There are several causes of toxic optic neuropathy. [1] Among these are: ingestion of methanol (wood alcohol), ethylene glycol (automotive antifreeze), disulfiram (used to treat chronic alcoholism), halogenated hydroquinolones (amebicidal medications), ethambutol and isoniazid (tuberculosis treatment), and antibiotics such as linezolid and chloramphenicol as well as chloroquine and the related ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuromyelitis_optica...

    Early initiation of treatment with steroids has been shown to improve vision-related outcomes after acute attacks. [1] [59] However, there is no high-level evidence for steroids affecting long-term outcomes; this treatment strategy was borrowed from that for similar diseases (idiopathic optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis). [59] [58]

  8. Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-arteritic_anterior...

    Additionally, certain symptoms, including elevated swelling, paleness, narrower arteries, and hemorrhages, were more common in NAION than in optic neuritis. [ 49 ] The natural progression of NAION following acute vision loss typically includes an improvement in visual acuity by 3 or more lines on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study ...

  9. Mitochondrial optic neuropathies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_optic...

    Toxic optic neuropathy refers to the ingestion of a toxin or an adverse drug reaction that results in vision loss from optic nerve damage. Patients may report either a sudden loss of vision in both eyes, in the setting of an acute intoxication, or an insidious asymmetric loss of vision from an adverse drug reaction.
