Optic neuritis symptoms

Posted By Mark on June 15, 1998 at 14:14:17:







What are the symptoms of optic neuritis in MS?  I was diagnosed in 1996 with RRMS but haven't had ON symptoms yet, until last week, I think. The focus in my left eye went away in 24 to 36 hrs. Right eye is okay.  I have an appt. with ophthalmologist 6/23.  Does the vision go totally? Blackness? Whiteness? Only unfocused?  What are potential treatments, if any?  What tests are conducted to determine if it is MS-related ON, or some other cause?  I did have Visual Evoked Potentials back in 1996 that did show some slowing of response in both eyes.  Thank you.
