Özet

Introduction: Recurrent optic neuritis neuritis (rON) is an autoimmune inflammatory condition of unknown cause. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment is used for many autoimmune disorders; however we do not have any information about its effect in rON, other than case reports. We aimed to evaluate our patients with rON who were treated with IVIg.
