Optic Neuritis
Overview & Our Approach to Optic Neuritis
Reducing Inflammation: We utilize a combination of therapies, including corticosteroids and other anti-inflammatory treatments, to reduce swelling and protect the optic nerve from further damage.
Supporting Optic Nerve Health: In addition to addressing inflammation, our treatments focus on supporting the health of the optic nerve through targeted supplementation and neuroprotective strategies.
- Telehealth & In-Office Treatments: Providing personalized, intensive care through telehealth consultations and in-office treatments at our New Jersey office for optimal results.
- At-Home Care with ACS3000: We provide the ACS3000 system for at-home care, which helps support optic nerve health and promotes recovery by enhancing blood flow and reducing inflammation, complementing in-office treatments.
- Targeted Supplements: Our specialized supplements are formulated to address the specific needs of patients with optic nerve atrophy. These supplements provide essential nutrients that support mitochondrial function, reduce oxidative stress, and protect against further nerve damage.
Symptoms & Causes of Optic Neuritis
Symptoms of Optic Neuritis
- Vision Loss: A sudden decrease in vision, often in one eye, is a hallmark of optic neuritis. The severity can range from mild to severe, and in some cases, vision loss may be temporary or permanent.
- Eye Pain: Pain, particularly when moving the eye, is a common symptom. This discomfort is usually due to the inflammation of the optic nerve.
- Color Vision Changes: Patients may notice that colors appear less vibrant or washed out, particularly reds.
- Photopsia: Some individuals experience flashes of light or flickering in their vision.
- Peripheral Vision Loss: In addition to central vision loss, peripheral vision may also be affected.
- Reduced Visual Acuity: Blurred or dimmed vision is common, often making it difficult to see fine details.
Causes of Optic Neuritis
- Multiple Sclerosis (MS): Optic neuritis is often an early sign of MS, a disease that affects the central nervous system. In MS, the immune system attacks the myelin sheath surrounding the optic nerve, leading to inflammation and damage.
- Autoimmune Disorders: Other autoimmune diseases, such as neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and lupus, can also cause optic neuritis.
- Infections: Certain infections, including viral and bacterial infections, can lead to inflammation of the optic nerve.
- Immune System Response: An overactive immune response, sometimes triggered by a recent infection or vaccination, can result in optic neuritis.
- Toxins: Exposure to certain toxins, including some medications, can cause inflammation of the optic nerve.
- Nutritional Deficiencies: Severe deficiencies in essential nutrients, particularly those affecting nerve health, can contribute to the development of optic neuritis.
