Toxic Optic Neuropathy : This can result in acute visual loss with bilateral optic disc swelling and cecocentral scotomas. Cases have been reported from exposure to ethambutol, methyl alcohol (moonshine), ethylene glycol (antifreeze), or carbon monoxide. In toxic optic neuropathy, visual loss also can develop gradually and produce optic atrophy without a phase of acute optic disc edema. Many agents have been implicated in toxic optic neuropathy, but evidence supporting the association is often weak
