    Author: Cuendet Graf F, Taylor DS.
    Journal: Bull Soc Belge Ophtalmol; 1991; 241():7-23. PubMed ID: 1840998.
    Abstract:
    Study of 40 children who presented a first episode of idiopathic optic neuritis. A mean follow-up of more than 8 years revealed only 15% of multiple sclerosis. This frequency is much lower than in adults. The visual outcome is also better. Significant factors are: absence of papilloedema, unilaterality, recurrence, HLA B7 and DR2, oligoclonal cerebrospinal fluid, anomalies of the VEPs.
