Description Spectral-Domain OCT (SD-OCT) detects axonal loss [retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) thinning] and neuronal degeneration [macular volume (MV) loss] in optic neuritis (ON) and multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. SD-OCT has been proposed as an outcome measure in the ON Model of central nervous system inflammation. The purpose of this study was to determine the temporal evolution of functional and structural changes in retinal architecture after acute ON.
