Description Recurrent optic neuritis is a known presentation of MOG antibody disease (MOGAD). Patients are typically younger than their AQP4 antibody positive counterparts, with a more balanced ratio of females to males and Caucasians to non-Caucasians. One of the hallmarks of MOGAD is the excellent response to high-dose corticosteroids. However, as we learn more about MOGAD, a wider spectrum of presentations and therapeutic responses are coming to light. At our institution, we have noted such heterogeneity in our MOG optic neuritis cohort. The aim of this study was to review the spectrum of MOG optic neuritis presentations, characteristics and treatment responses with a focus on atypical cases.
