Description |
Multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO) are distinct immune-mediated inflammatory conditions that characteristically attack the optic nerve, brain and spinal cord. Associated optic nerve demyelination and axonal loss lead to a range of visual complaints and disabilities that may be the presenting symptoms of these disorders. |
