A 32-year-old woman with a 3-month history of optic neuritis in the right eye (now recovered to 6/9 vision) presents for follow-up. MRI brain at the time of optic neuritis showed one T2 hyperintense lesion in the right optic nerve and two additional demyelinating lesions in the periventricular white matter. She is asymptomatic neurologically. What is the most appropriate next step in management?
A 28-year-old woman presents with acute loss of vision in the left eye over 24 hours. She reports pain on eye movements and colour vision appears washed out. Examination reveals a relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD), normal fundus appearance, and visual acuity of 6/60 in the affected eye.
