Tracking retinal nerve fiber layer loss after optic neuritis: a prospective study using optical coherence tomography
Multiple Sclerosis (Jun 25 2008) Ophthalmology Explore Article
Introduction Optic neuritis causes retinal nerve fiber layer damage, which can be quantified with optical coherence tomography. Optical coherence tomography may be used to track nerve fiber layer changes and to establish a time-dependent relationship between retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and visual function after optic neuritis. Methods This prospective case series included 78 patients with optic neuritis, who underwent optical coherence tomography and visual testing over a mean period ... (Read Full Article)
