This time on the MS Trust podcast we’ll be talking about eye problems in MS. Multiple sclerosis can affect your vision in several ways. Problems with your sight, such as optic neuritis, can be an early symptom of MS, but can also arise if you've had MS for some time.

To try and explain the ins and outs of visual problems we chat to Dr Benson Chen a neuro-ophthalmologist, about some common eye issues in MS and ask him some questions the MS community sent us.
 
 We also chat to Deb about her own experiences with eye issues that eventually led to her MS diagnoses.
