Description |
The distinction between optic neuritis (ON) and ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) can be difficult at the time of initial presentation. Since the prognosis for visual recovery is different for these two conditions, improved diagnostic accuracy would be useful. We retrospectively analysed 367 patients with ON or ION and a clinical profile was developed for each of these conditions. |
