    Abstract:
    Examination of 166 patients with optic neuritis revealed that 65 of them developed multiple sclerosis (MS) at different times after optic neuritis. The observation period was 9.4 years on the average. Using the clinical, laboratory, immunogenetic methods the clinico-immunogenetic heterogeneity of optic neuritis was discovered, the highly informative specific clinical signs and immunogenetic markers suitable as criteria for predicting different variants of optic neuritis outcomes were defined. Using a heterogeneous successive procedure a method of individual ++pre-nosological prediction of MS in persons with a history of optic neuritis was devised.
