Description Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides a sensitive means of capturing axonal damage [retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) loss] and neuronal degeneration [macular volume (MV) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) loss] after optic neuritis (ON). The purpose of this study was to determine whether early markers of clinical and structural integrity in the afferent visual pathway could be used to predict recovery after ON.
