Optical Coherence Tomography versus Visual Evoked Potentials for Detecting Visual Pathway Abnormalities in Patients with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder.

CONCLUSIONS: VEPs were superior for detecting subclinical or first-ever ON, while OCT was better for detecting eyes with multiple ON episodes. The correlations of OCT and VEPs with clinical disability measures indicate that these tests are potential markers of the disease burden in NMOSD. PMID: 29504295 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
