What clinical features predict visual recovery from optic neuritis in NMOSD?

The main clinical feature associated with outcomes is the severity of vision loss at nadir. The more severe the vision loss, the higher the risk of poor outcomes. However, there can be patients with very severe vision loss (no light perception) who can still recover to 20/20. The correlation with ra...
