At first it was my primary, I was in the hospital and they were checking me for some other issue. I was then sent to a neurologist.

@A MyMSTeam Member For me, it was extreme pain in my left eye when I looked from side to side or up and down. I couldn't even lie on my left side due to pain. I had some cloudiness in the upper left quadrant of my vision, but luckily that was it. It resolved in about 3 months. They said it was in the early stages, which was good, but I CAN'T imagine what it feels like to be more severe.
@A MyMSTeam Member everyone experiences it differently, the first time I had it the entire top portion of my vision field was gone. The second time was like looking through a dirty pair of glasses that had a big blob on the lense.
So what does optic neuritis feel like?
