  • Title: Multiple sclerosis presenting with progressive visual failure.
    Author: Ormerod IE, McDonald WI.
    Journal: J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry; 1984 Sep; 47(9):943-6. PubMed ID: 6481388.
    Abstract:
    Progressive visual failure as the presenting feature of multiple sclerosis is described in five patients. The clinical features did not permit a distinction from visual loss due to compression. The finding of oligoclonal bands in the CSF at presentation is a useful pointer to the diagnosis, but is not specific and full investigation to exclude treatable causes of visual loss is essential.
