Drawing attention to the temporary symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), especially seen in young adults, Neurology Specialist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Emin Özcan drew attention to the temporary symptoms of MS and gave important information about the disease.
Pointing out the painful blurred vision, which is one of the symptoms of the disease, Yeditepe University Kozyatağı Hospital Neurology Specialist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özcan continued his words as follows:
“MS, an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks our own nerve sheaths and perceives it as a foreign substance, affects the brain and spinal cord. Complaints such as vision loss, double vision, instability, speech disorder, urinary incontinence, difficulty walking are among the symptoms. Painful loss of vision or blurred vision in one eye are also typical findings of MS.
