Text: A 30-year-old female with multiple sclerosis (MS) has come for her routine check-up with her neurologist. She first experienced signs and symptoms several years earlier. The symptoms were not concerning as they were only tingling sensations that caused mild discomfort. These sensations also went away. It became worrisome when the sensation transitioned into pain and tingling. She began to lose coordination during each cycle, and over time she never fully recovered from the previous flare. Provide a scholarly resource in APA format to support your answer. 3. When there are issues with the neural tissue like this, they will often look into the eye. Why?
