Scientists probe the hidden cause of MS vision loss

NCT ID NCT02543788

Summary

This study aimed to understand why people with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience long-term vision problems, known as chronic optic neuropathy. Researchers compared 39 MS patients with vision issues to healthy volunteers, using eye exams and brain scans to see if the damage was from nerve inflammation or direct nerve degeneration. The goal was to learn more about the disease process to help predict future vision outcomes for patients.
