Treatment depends on the cause and severity. Some cases recover with observation; others need specialist steroid treatment or management of an underlying immune or infectious condition. Sudden visual loss should not be self-treated.

Managing Optic Neuritis at Home
Risk factors and personal history are reviewed during your examination. A family history, diabetes, high blood pressure, high spectacle power, previous injury or previous eye surgery may change the recommended follow-up. Keep a record of changes in vision, use prescribed treatment consistently and do not self-medicate with someone else’s eye drops. If glasses or contact lenses are part of your care, bring them to each review.
Follow-Up Care for Optic Neuritis
Follow-up compares today’s findings with your baseline. It can confirm that observation is safe, show whether treatment is working, and identify a change before it affects everyday vision. Your review interval is personalised to the condition and its stage.
When to Contact an Eye Doctor
Do not wait for the next routine visit if you develop sudden blur or sight loss, a curtain or shadow, new flashes and many floaters, severe pain, increasing redness, injury or rapidly worsening symptoms.
