External ocular motor palsies in ophthalmic zoster: a review.
Seventy-seven new patients suffering from ophthalmic zoster and a selected group of 69 old patients were carefully examined with regard to external ocular movements. An incidence of 31% of ocular pareses was found in the new patients, and 58 in all were analysed. We were surprised to find several of these were contralateral and bilateral palsies. 28% of the palsies were asymptomatic, due to dip...
متن کاملIsolated Ocular Motor Nerve Palsies.
An isolated ocular motor nerve palsy is defined as dysfunction of a single ocular motor nerve (oculomotor, trochlear, or abducens) with no associated or localizing neurologic signs or symptoms. When occurring in patients aged 50 or older, the most common cause is microvascular ischemia, but serious etiologies such as aneurysm, malignancy, and giant cell arteritis should always be considered. In...
متن کاملDiabetes mellitus-associated ocular motor nerve palsies.
E diagnosis of ocular motor palsy enables prognosis and assists in treatment. In adults, the most common causes of ocular motor palsy are aneurysm, microvascular disease (such as diabetes mellitus [DM]), and trauma. In patients with DM, ocular motor nerve palsy is a common cause of acquired diplopia and/or ptosis.1,2 In diabetics, the calculated incidence of cranial nerves palsies is 5-10 times...
متن کاملAdaptations and deficits in the vestibulo-ocular reflex after peripheral ocular motor palsies.
Palsy of a nerve might be expected to lower vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) responses in its fields of motion, but effects of peripheral neuromuscular disease were unknown. We recorded the VOR during sinusoidal head rotations in yaw, pitch, and roll at 0.5-2 Hz and static torsional gain in 43 patients with unilateral nerve palsies. Sixth nerve palsy (n = 21) reduced both abduction and adduction V...
متن کاملOphthalmic Complications and Ocular Changes in Pregnancy- A Review
Pregnancy is known to cause several physiological changes in the parturient. These physiological changes affect multiple organ systems including the visual system [1,2]. The ophthalmic complications are divided into physiologic and pathologic changes. Pathologic changes in pregnancy are further segregated into three categories including: first time ocular pathology during pregnancy, modificatio...
