Key Points

The aim is to evaluate subfoveal and peripapillary choroidal vascularity index (CVI) in multiple sclerosis patients post-optic neuritis.
Measured subfoveal and peripapillary CVI in multiple sclerosis patients with unilateral optic neuritis.
Conducted assessments within a standardized 3-12-month post-onset period.
Analyzed retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness alongside CVI measurements.
Subfoveal CVI was significantly higher within the 3-12-month post-ON period.
Peripapillary CVI showed no significant differences across groups despite RNFL thinning.
CVI and RNFL assessments provided complementary insights into neurovascular changes.

Implication

Combined assessment highlights neurovascular changes in multiple sclerosis following optic neuritis.

Abstract

Subfoveal CVI was higher within the standardized 3-12-month post-ON period, whereas peripapillary CVI remained comparable across groups despite marked RNFL thinning. Combined assessment of CVI and RNFL may provide complementary structural information regarding neurovascular changes in MS.
