متن کاملStudy of congenital nystagmus: optokinetic nystagmus.

Abnormal patterns of OKN, such as superimposition of pendular oscillations on the optokinetic slow component and inversion of OKN, were observed. Optokinetic gain (eye movement velocity/drum velocity) was decreased compared to that in normal subjects, and optokinetic after-nystagmus, or transient ...

متن کاملLatent nystagmus and acquired pendular nystagmus masquerading as spasmus nutans.
SUMMARY We used ocular motility recordings to identify the characteristics of a rare combination of conjugate, horizontal jerk, and pendular nystagmus in a 9-year-old boy. The clinical diagnoses were amblyopia, left esotropia, congenital nystagmus, and an apparently uniocular pendular nystagmus that mimicked spasmus nutans. Ocular motility recordings revealed an unusual latent/manifest latent n...
