Targeted detailed history taking and the subsequent neuro-ophthalmologic examination in addition to standard neurologic examination can lead to a correct diagnosis. In this article, clinical approaches to diagnose for visual loss are reviewed and some clinical syndromes are described. Keywords: Vision; History taking; Examination 서론눈으로들어오는사물이망막에맺히고시신경을통해대뇌시각중추까지들시각경로 (afferent visual pathway) 를통해들어오는과정은망막광수용체 시신경 (optic nerve) 시각교차 (optic chiasm) 시각로 (optic tract) 가쪽무릎핵 (lateral geniculate nucleus) 시각로부챗살 (optic radiation) 일차시각피질 (primary visual cortex) 의경로를따른다. 일시적인또는영구적인시력소실은응급실이나외래에서흔히만날수있으며안과적질환이나시신경병 (optic neuropathy) 또는뇌내시각경로를침범하는질환에서나타날수있다. 본장에서는시력소실에대한일련의병력청취와검사들, 그리고신경안과적계통검사를통한진단접근과시력소실을유발하는대표적인질환인시신경병증에대해간단히기술한다 병력청취시력소실이단안성인지양안성인지가병력청취에서가장중요 한질문은인데, 단안성시력소실은대개시신경교차이전의병변 (prechiasmal lesion) 즉, 안구자체질환또는시신경질환에서발생하며 (Tables 1, 2, Fig. 1), 양안성시력소실은대개시신경교차 (optic chiasm), 시신경로 (optic tract), 외측무릎체 (lateral geniculate), 시각부챗살 (optic radiation) 혹은후두엽 (occipital lobe) 병변, 즉시신경교차이후병터에서발생한다 (Table 3). 시력소실이단안성혹은양안성인지환자가잘구별하지못한다면, 환자에게각눈을가리게하면서검사하면단안성혹은양안성소실인지확인한다. 전형적으로, 동측반맹 (homonymous hemianopia) 이있는환자는측두 (temporal) 시야결손이있는쪽에만시야결손이있다고인지할수있다. 가장흔한일시적양안시력저하의원인은편두통시각전조, 후두엽일과성뇌허혈발작그리고후두엽간질 (Table 4) 이며 1,2 기타드문원인으로는소아에서의두부손상, 고혈압성뇌병증, 임신중독증, 그리고 cyclosporine 등여러약제독성에의한것으로대개이러한피질시각상실 (cortical blindness) 은수시간에서수일지속된다.

Isolated recurrent optic neuritis (autoimmune optic neuritis) 1) 전형적인탈수초성시신경염 (Idiopathic demyelinating optic neuritis) 전형적인시신경염의경우 20대에서 50대사이의여자에호발하며, 급성단안의시력감소를주증상으로한다. 시력저하뿐아니라시야의감소, 색각의감소, 대비감도의감소등의시기능저하를보일수있으며그중환자가느끼는가장흔한증상은안통과함께시력의갑작스런감소이다 (Table 6). 전형적인탈수초성시신경염환자에서의시력감소는 2, 3일간에걸쳐일어나는것이대부분이고조금길면 7일에서 10일에걸쳐발생한다. 시력감소의정도는정상시력부터무광각까지다양하며성인의경우보통단안성인경우가많지만증상이없는반대쪽눈에도검사상시기능장애를보이기도한다. 섬광증상이시력저하가발생하기전에나타날수있고시신경염이치료된후에도지속되기도하는데, 시신경염에서의섬광증상은수평안구운동시잘나타나는특징을가지고있다. 시신경염에서특징적인증상은안통인데안통은크게안운동과상관없는안구주위의통증과안운동에의해악화되는안통으로나눌수있는데, 시신경염에만나타나는특이한증상은아니지만다른시신경병증과의감별에유용한증상이다. 섬광증상과마찬가지로시력저하가나타나기전에먼저안통이나타나기도한다. 색각이상이다양하게나타날수있는데이는시력저하보다더심한것이보통이다. 또불의밝기가정상눈에비해어둡게보이 Table 6.

Revised diagnostic criteria for NMO (Wingerchuk et al. 2006) Two absolute criteria: i) optic neuritis ii) myelitis At least two of three supportive criteria: i) Presence of a contiguous spinal cord MRI lesion extending over three or more vertebral segments ii) MRI criteria not satisfying the revised McDonald diagnostic criteria for MS iii) NMO-IgG in serum 양안에동시에발병하거나 1 개월이내에연속적으로시신경염이발 생하는경우다발성경화증보다는 NMO 의가능성이더높겠다. 다발 성경화증에비해망막섬유두께의감소가심하며이는더광범위한 축삭손상을시사하며좋지않은예후를설명해준다. 예후는일반적 으로다발성경화증보다좋지못한것으로알려졌으며, 영구또는심 한시력소실과사지마비등을동반할수있다. 치료는주로급성기에 고용량의스테로이드정맥주사를하지만시력소실이심하고사지마 비를보이는경우에혈장혈장교환시행하는것이추천되고있다. 재 발방지를위해장기적으로면역억제치료를해야하며이를위해경구 스테로이드나 azathioprine 을투여할수있다. 그외이차약제로서 Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide 정주나 Mitoxantrone 정주, 또는 Mycophenolate mofetil 의경구투여를고려할수있다. 면역글로불린 (IVIG) 이효과적이라는보고도있다. 다발성경화증에서예방치료로 사용되는인터페론이 NMO 환자에서는연간재발률의감소를보이 지못했고, 일부환자에서는오히려증상의악화또는광범위한뇌병 변을일으키기도하였다고보고하고있어, NMO 에서인터페론의예 방치료는추천되지않고있다.
