When optic neuritis occurs in patients with myasthenia gravis, careful evaluation is necessary while considering the possibility that it may be the first symptom of a demyelinating central nervous system disease. Therefore, it is important to conduct shorter-interval monitoring and symptom screening for patients with neurological autoimmune diseases, such as myasthenia gravis, even if multiple sclerosis is not initially suspected, to achieve early detection of multiple sclerosis.
