Article Synopsis
- Optic neuritis (ON) is an acquired disorder of the optic nerve linked with demyelinating conditions and can present differently in children compared to adults.
- The main concern for healthcare providers is the potential development of multiple sclerosis (MS) in patients with ON, which has led to a greater emphasis on distinguishing between MS and other demyelinating disorders like NMOSD and MOGAD.
- The paper discusses a case of a child with severe MOGAD ON, detailing the clinical features, investigations, and treatment that resulted in complete visual recovery.
