Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, demyelinating disease that affects the the brain and spinal cord. It is characterized by visual abnormalities such as blurred vision, diplopia (double vision), nystagmus (jerky eye movements) etc., paraesthesias, weakness, spasticity, paralysis, urinary dysfunction, and mild cognitive impairment. Multiple sclerosis is unpredictable and varies in severity. In some people, multiple sclerosis is a mild illness, but it can lead to permanent disability in others. The cause of the disease is not fully understood. It is usually considered as an autoimmune disease which occurs due to abnormal immune response. Genetic, environmental, and viral factors also may initiate the demyelination process. |
