Typically presenting with sudden-onset visual decline and extraocular pain during movement, acute ON is generally idiopathic. Bilateral ON is rare, but quick identification is important because it can potentially lead to permanent loss of vision if left untreated. Vaccination-induced ON is even rarer but not difficult to treat. However, such patients require further evaluation and long-term follow-up because they may be prone to other neurological disorders in the future.
