I think you should get some B12 testing, and Vit D too while you're at it. Optic neuritis can be one sign of low B12.

People vary in how they present with low B12 issues.
And that can be confusing.

This is our B12 thread:

So far I'm not overly impressed the the office I've been going to, and not just because they haven't made a diagnosis.

Just over the past few days I'm noticing more muscle weakness and seeing weird colors. Pretty scary stuff. The symptoms seem to indicate some type of neuropathy, but I think what's throwing the docs is the lack of illness or vaccine preceding it.
