MRI brain was done in only 11 patients due to financial constraints which revealed two MS and 3 cases of increased signal intensity in short segment of Optic nerve. Central and centrocaecal scotoma was most common visual field defect. ![]() There was improvement in both colour vision and contrast sensitivity but was not statistically significant. Only 3.23% had VA less than 6/60 after 3months. Also after 1month and 3 months majority had vision between 6/18-6/6. After treatment majority had vision between 6/18-6/6 (46.38%) and was statistically significant. BCVA after ONTT had very good improvement. Loss of vision persisted more than 1 month in case of papilitis. Incidence of retrobubar neuritis was slightly higher than papilitis. Higher incidence of Papilitis was seen among males and RBN was more commonly seen among females. Highest incidence was seen in age group of 41-50yrs which was found to be 36.7%. Results: Most common age group affected was 20- 50 years with mean of 39.36yrs. ![]() Patients were examined in detail at presentation and treated with ONTT regimen and follow up done at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months. A total of 30 cases were taken up for the study. Materials and Methods: Study population included patients who were clinically diagnosed as Optic neuritis at Department of Ophthalmology, Mamata medical college. Aim & Objective: To study the clinical profile and visual outcome of optic neuritis
