Dr. G. Ravi Babu, Dr. B. Manjula, Dr. Khamer Jahan
Abstract :
Idiopathic inflammation of the optic nerve occurs in isolation or in the context of a more widespread demyelinating disease. Children are more likely to have bilateral visual loss; anterior optic nerve involvement with papillitis; an associated bacterial, viral, or parainfectious etiology; and better visual recovery than adults. Optic neuritis is less often associated with multiple sclerosis in children than it is in adults. We present a case of a 6-year old with idiopathic bilateral optic neuritis, who experienced a complete recovery with no evidence of demyelination, following treatment.
