Features of optic neuritis and associated clinical signs in NMOSD and MOGAD
Optic neuritis is a common occurrence that can lead to vision loss in multiple sclerosis, NMOSD, and MOGAD. The features of optic neuritis are well described for multiple sclerosis but not for NMOSD and MOGAD. These diseases differ in severity, rate of recurrence, and overall outcomes, which is why prompt and accurate diagnosis and management is essential. This review article summarizes the characteristic neuro-ophthalmological signs in NMOSD and MOGAD, serum biomarkers and MRI findings, as well as immediate relapse management and long-term therapies used for NMOSD and MOGAD.
