Summary

This study used a quick, painless eye scan called OCTA to compare blood flow in the optic nerve between 54 people with multiple sclerosis and healthy volunteers. The goal was to see if MS changes optic nerve blood vessels and if measuring this could help doctors track the disease. Results may provide a new, simple way to monitor MS progression.
