abstract: The article presents a study on 94 patients hospitalized in the Clinic of Ophthalmology of Cluj-Napoca, during 1993-1998, with optic neuritis. There are presented the clinical and functional aspects of optic neuritis, especially the importance of static perimetry, for the diagnosis, and her superiority, compared with the dynamic perimetry, in finding minor visual field defects in the diagnosis of the optic neuritis too. After treatment, 75% of the cases have a favorable evolution, but the static perimetry reveals sequela visual field defects at 85.3% of the eyes which suffered optic neuritis. According with this findings, static perimetry has a important role in the diagnosis of optic neuritis, in the revealing the functional sequela defects and in the monitoring of the patients.
