Cytomegalovirus optic neuritis
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1997Cytomegalovirus (CMV) optic neuritis is a rapidly blinding disease. Untreated eyes have a final visual acuity of no light perception. Treated eyes maintain visual acuity of approximately 20/100. Relapse occurs often in subjects maintained on single-dose ganciclovir and is controlled by double-dose ganciclovir.

Inflammatory affections of the optic chiasm are probably more frequent than existing records show. According to Duke-Elder, 1 they are seldom recognized. Chiasmal optic neuritis is merely a variant of the well-known condition retrobulbar neuritis. The age and sex incidence of the former corresponds to that of the ordinary case of retrobulbar neuritis,

In four of six patients with clinical optic chiasmal neuritis, MRI demonstrated abnormalities of the chiasm. Optic chiasmal neuritis may be the initial manifestation of multiple sclerosis, a reflection of established CNS demyelination, or an isolated clinical finding.

The relationship of lymphomatous disease to optic neuritis may be obscured by the wide separation in time of the ocular and systemic manifestations. This variation is found in two patients recently studied here: the first with blinding, bilateral neuritis occurring 15 years prior to diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease; the second with transient, unilateral,

Abstract We describe two cases of chiasmal optic neuritis. The presenting symptoms were reduced visual acuity and bitemporal visual field defects. The enlargement of the optic chiasm in the acute stage and normalization after recovery is demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Pediatric optic neuritis may be challenging to diagnose and treat. Significant clinical investigation of optic neuritis occurring in adults guides current clinical practices. Differences in presentation and prognosis exist for pediatric patients with optic neuritis when compared with adults including the risk of developing multiple sclerosis.

Publisher Summary This chapter presents an overview of acute optic neuritis. Optic neuritis is a common cause of acute visual loss in early adult life. In the large majority of cases, the prognosis for vision is excellent even without treatment, but precise diagnosis is nevertheless important for two reasons. First, optic neuritis may be simulated by

We studied 20 patients with acute optic neuritis prospectively for 12 months. Visual fields, color vision, and VEPs to 15' checks were initially abnormal in all patients. Visual acuity was abnormal in 90% and contrast sensitivity in 95% of patients. We devised a graded visual impairment scale (GVIS) to include all visual functions tested.
