Optic neuritis tends to afflict young adults with an average age in their 30s
Neuritis is inflammation of a nerve. There are different types of neuritis such as optic neuritis (affecting the optic nerve), cranial neuritis (involving the cranial nerves), and peripheral neuritis (affecting peripheral nerves outside the brain and spinal cord). Each type can have various causes and symptoms.
Yes, optic neuritis can go into remission. In some cases, the inflammation causing optic neuritis resolves on its own, leading to improvement in vision. However, it is important to monitor for any recurrence or worsening of symptoms.
Optic neuritis typically affects only one eye and does not directly cause lazy eye (amblyopia). However, if left untreated or if vision is significantly compromised in one eye, it could potentially lead to amblyopia due to lack of visual stimulation to that eye. It is important to seek prompt medical attention for optic neuritis to prevent any complications.
Steroid eye drops are not typically used to treat optic neuritis, as this condition involves inflammation of the optic nerve deep inside the eye. Treatment usually involves high-dose oral or intravenous steroids to reduce inflammation and speed up recovery. It is important to consult with an ophthalmologist or neurologist for proper evaluation and management.

There is usually no visual evidence of optic neuritis. Pain upon eye movement is a clinical sign of such. Inflammation of the optic nerve is called Optic neuritis.
