A member asked:
What diseases besides ms include monocular visual loss?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Vision loss: There are many diseases that can affect one eye besides m.S., for example stroke, or arteritis or local infections, such as by herpes virus, and others. I suggest you see an ophthalmologist or a neurologist.

Optic neuritis may be presentation leading to MS in about 60% of cases.
