Background: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG-associated optic neuritis (ON) is a new subset of demyelinating optic neuropathy.
Case Report: This study presents a case of a 49-year-old woman with MOG-IgG-positive ON, who reported to the ophthalmic emergency room with decreased visual acuity, retrobulbar pain and red color desaturation in her left eye. Abnormalities in the ophthalmological examination were: decreased Snellen's distance best-corrected visual acuity (DBCVA) to 0.
Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a mitochondrial disease leading to rapid and severe bilateral vision loss. Idebenone has been shown to be effective in stabilizing and restoring vision in patients treated within 1 year of onset of vision loss. The open-label, international, multicenter, natural history-controlled LEROS study (ClinicalTrials.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of a six-week stroboscopic training program on the conductivity of the visual pathway in elite handball players, specifically related to their visual processing of retinal location and viewing conditions. The study included 22 handball players who were randomly assigned to an experimental or a control group.
