Nasociliary Nerve Syndrome

Nasociliary (I) nerve syndrome, or Dolphin syndrome (syn. pseudotumor optic neuritis) is neuromyelitis optica (visual neuritis) of various etiologies, manifested by a monochrome decrease in visual acuity in combination with lacrimation, photophobia, and blind spots before the eyes. It was isolated based on the work of John Dolphin and Murray Griffiths more than half a century ago, although the history of optic neuritis itself goes back more than 150 years. Utoch
