This is an interesting question. Many doctors believe that corticosteroids can positively impact MS and can cause reductions of nerve swelling in a shorter timeframe than without. But recent studies have shown that there is very little effect on optic nerve recovery time when using corticosteroids than without.
Optic neuritis, whether caused by MS or not, will right itself within a few weeks to a few months. It should be completely cleared in 6 months for most people. There is little need to help it along.
