After Optic Neuritis: The Way Forward
The potential treatment avenues for optic neuritis may involve addressing the underlying cause, if known, and managing the symptoms to help alleviate discomfort and support visual function. In cases where optic neuritis is associated with multiple sclerosis, for example, treatment may focus on managing the autoimmune response and reducing inflammation. Corticosteroids may be prescribed to help reduce inflammation and speed up recovery, while other medications or interventions may be recommended based on the individual’s specific circumstances. It is important to work closely with a healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for optic neuritis.
