The aim of this study was to report the possible association between minor trauma to the eyes and the subsequent occurrence of optic neuritis in patients with serum anti‐aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) antibody‐positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Herein, we present three patients who developed acute optic neuritis with visual disturbances after accidental minor trauma to their eyes, without any fundus abnormality or orbital floor fractures present. Two of the three patients had a preceding history of neurological disturbances compatible with NMOSD (e.g., myelitis, area postrema syndrome) before the occurrence of trauma. One patient was rapidly treated with steroid pulse therapy and plasmapheresis, and he fully recovered visual acuity. The other two, who were left untreated in the acute phase, had sequelae of severe visual disturbances in the affected eyes. These cases suggest possible association between minor trauma to the eyes and the subsequent occurrence of optic neuritis in patients with serum anti‐AQP4 antibodies. Avoiding ocular trauma and early administration of steroid pulse therapy in response to optic neuritis after trauma are desired in such cases. We present three cases with serum AQP4‐IgG who developed optic neuritis after minor traumas. All patients showed relapsing clinical course compatible with AQP4‐IgG‐positive NMOSD. One patient treated with steroid pulse therapy had full recovery, but other untreated patients did not.
