Abstract
Optic neuritis presents with sudden onset of visual loss, usually affecting young adults and is characterized by inflammation of the optic nerve. Most cases are idiopathic while others can be a part of demyelinating disorders Hyperacute treatment with pulse dose of corticosteroids has always been mentioned in literature, to restore near normal vision. The present paper highlights the importance of therapeutic corticosteroids in a patient with Optic neuritis and we strongly advocate high dose corticosteroids as a sight saving measure in cases of optic neuritis even if the diagnosis is delayed.
