  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We treated 3 cases with dysthyroid optic neuro-pathy due to Graves' disease using systemic predni-solone and repeated plasmapheresis. In the five affect-ed eyes, central scotoma was present with the visual acuity reduced to less than 0.1 in 3 eyes. Cortico-steroid treatment proved futile in the 3 cases.

The combined treatment with systemic steroid and plasmapheresis was effective in all the cases as regards recovery of visual acuity and visual field. The bene-ficial effect became manifest promptly after a few therapeutic courses. A reduction in hypertrophy of extraocular muscles resulted in one case when seen on CT scanning.
