MOG SYMPTOMS FULL
Full versions in both eyes (OU) but painful.No other recent illnesses or changes in her health were reported by mom. Treated urinary tract infection several weeks ago.No notable stressors at home or at school.Great aunt – possible similar symptoms at a young age.The patient’s mom reported no cats or other animals in the household, no recent travel, no recent outdoor activities such as hiking, and no recent reported tick bites.

Chief Complaint: Progressive vision loss left > rightĪ 9-year old female was referred to the University of Iowa to undergo additional evaluation for profound vision loss with “optic disc swelling.” The child presented with her mother and related progressive blurry vision of both eyes that began 4 days prior to evaluation.
