Neuroophthalmologist: It is important that this be evaluated by your closest neuro-ophthalmologist. There is treatment for this although cure is still elusive. Sometimes a neurologist especially with expertise in ms can handle this. There is much that has improved in recent years in the management of optic neuritis so don't delay in getting help.
