Optic neuritis has a well-recognised association with multiple sclerosis (MS). Forty-five percent of patients with MS have
been found to have optic atrophy at post mortem [1]. Although MS predominantly involves the optic nerves [2] and the pathways
controlling eye movements [3], there also appears to be an association between MS and uveitis.
Retinal periphlebitis was first reported in association with MS in 1944 [4]. There are numerous case reports/ series in the
literature reporting an association between MS and uveitis [5, 6].
