Abstract

The AA. examined 36 uncomplicated ON (Optic neuritis) observed from 1-1-1970 to 31-12-1980. An ophthalmological, neurological, and electrophysiological test (VEP, SEP, BAER) is made on this patients from 1-1-1986 to 31-3-1986. The importance of the electrophysiological examination is evaluated to recognize subclinical Multiple Sclerosis.
