BACKGROUND We present a case of a patient initially presenting with multifocal choroiditis (MFC) in one eye. She subsequently developed lesions most consistent with punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) in the contralateral eye, followed by acute vision loss from retrobulbar optic neuropathy. Optic neuropathy has been well described in the setting of MFC. There is, however, only one report of its ...

The development of biopharmaceutical agents, including the interferons (IFN), offers new treatment options for a wide range of medical conditions. Such advancements, however, have not come without risk to patients. Optic neuropathy in the setting of IFN therapy has been previously documented and is usually attributed to anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy; however, the pathophysiology remains p...

Diabetic rats in long-term display an augmented nociceptive response to chemical, mechanical, and thermal stimuli. Furthermore, hyperalgesia is one of the major symptoms of diabetic neuropathy in some patients. Considering the antidiabetic potential of chard, this study was carried out to evaluate the possible analgesic effect of chard-mixed food intake in male streptozotocin-induced diabetic r...

ABSTRACT Methanol poisoning is a serious problem due to its high mortality and revalence of health sequelae among survivors. Death from methanol has been reported in 8-36% permanent vision loss observed 20- 0% acute trauma Formic acid that builds up the optic nerve can disrupt visual system cause neuropathy. Vision painless usually occurs both eyes within one three days. This Systematic Review ...

INTRODUCTION Autoantibodies to the alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor and N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor are known to be the causes of autoimmune encephalitis particularly limbic encephalitis. The involvement of the peripheral nervous system is rarely reported. METHODS We analyzed the serial nerve conduction studies of a previously reported case of ...
