Approach to
Diagnosis and Management of
Optic Neuropathy
2. Introduction
Visual loss is a frequently encountered symptom in
neurologic practice
It may occur in the background of established
metabolic disorders like diabetes mellitus or appear
as a primary symptom of neurological dysfunction
Clinical triad: Vision loss, color desaturation,
positive RAPD

3. Classification of optic neuropathies
Optic neuritis (OPN)
Ischaemic optic neuropathy
Toxic and nutritional optic neuropathy
Systemic inflammatory disorders
Connective tissue disorders and systemic vasculitis
Inherited optic neuropathies
Other

4. Optic Neuropathies (OPN)
Isolated OPN
OPN associated with multiple sclrerosis
OPN associated with neuromyelitis optica and
spectrum disorders
Chronic relapsing idiopathic optic neuritis (CRION)

Non-arteritic
Drugs: ethambutol,

8. Inherited Optic Neuropaties
Primary hereditary optic neuropathies
• Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy
• Autosomal dominant and recessive optic atrophy
Optic neuropathy as a feature of degenerative brain
disease
• Hereditary ataxia (spinocerebellar ataxia, Friedreich’s ataxia)
• Hereditary polineuropathy (Charcot Mariet Tooth disease)
• Hereditary spastic paraplegia
• Storage disorders (lipid storage disorder)

9. Other
Compressive
Paraneoplastic
Post radiation

11. Clinical Evaluation
Age at onset
Elderly with
concomitant history of
weight loss, myalgia, and
fatigue accompanied by
temporal pain
Arteritic form of
ischemic optic
neuropathy due to
temporal arteritis
Young onset, acute
unilateral painful visual
loss particularly in young
women
optic neuritis (OPN)
associated with MS
Mustafa, S., & Pandit, L. (2014). Approach to diagnosis and management of optic neuropathy. Neurology India, 62(6), 599.
13. Clinical Evaluation
Ocular pain: retrobulbar neuritis
Concomitant illness: Coexisting hypertension,
diabetes, and hyperlipidemia favor a diagnosis of
non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy
Drug-induced optic neuropathy may be seen
particularly with Ethambutol, Amiodarone, and anti-
cancer drugs
Family history: hereditary optic neuropathy

17. Summary
Diagnosis is challenging, various etiology
Clinical triad: visual loss, colour desaturation,
positive RAPD
Careful clinical investigation needed
Treatment based on etiology
