To review several etiologies of nonneurologic diplopia that the neurologist should be familiar with. The pathophysiology, clinical presentation, neuroimaging findings, and treatment options are briefl...
Certain etiologies for diplopia can be associated with life-threatening neurologic conditions and should be investigated thoroughly for proper localization and immediate management of the underlying d...
Diplopia can be a difficult symptom for the neurologist to evaluate. A systematic approach to the evaluation of diplopia can help establish the urgency and necessity of an extensive workup.This review...
This case report presents the clinical findings of a female patient diagnosed with Wernicke's encephalopathy, characterized by pinpoint pupils. While pupillary changes can occur in Wernicke's encephal...
Jaw dystonia and laryngospasm in the context of subacute brainstem dysfunction have been described in a small number of diseases, including antineuronal nuclear antibody type 2 (ANNA-2, also known as ...
To study the outcomes of treatment with central mini-plication of the medial rectus (MR) muscles in adult convergence insufficiency with diplopia....
The study sample comprised 9 cases (7 women). The length of MR plication was collected. Other variables reported were postsurgical deviation, overcorrections in the early postoperative period and at t...
A central mini-plication of the MR was performed in 9 patients (8 unilateral). Mean (±SD) age was 58.66 (21.39) years. Mean near preoperative deviation: 16.22 (±2.9) pd and distance preoperative devia...
Central mini-plication of 1 or 2 medial rectus muscles can improve the symptoms and signs of exotropia associated with convergence insufficiency when exercises and the prisms are rejected by the patie...
Orbital fractures can result in devastating functional complications to sight and well-being, yet our understanding of functional sequelae post reconstruction is not well understood in the literature....
Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) is a neurologic emergency requiring timely intravenous thiamine supplementation to prevent permanent neurologic deficits. Historically, the WE diagnosis was limited to i...
The postoperative diplopia test (PODT) is used to assess the risk of postoperative diplopia in older children and adults prior to strabismus surgery for nonfunctional reasons. The purpose of this stud...
In the first phase of this study, the repeatability of the PODT method was prospectively assessed with two groups of patients (group 1, test-retest; group 2, interobserver). In the second phase, notes...
For phase 1, 39 participants were recruited. In group 1, 12 participants showed agreement in the area of suppression for both near and distance fixation; 8 showed variability. In group 2, 10 showed ag...
Many patients develop diplopia postoperatively, but this generally resolves spontaneously. Current testing procedures have excessive test-retest and interobserver variability and insufficient predicti...
This study aimed to analyze saccades in patients with orbital-wall fractures with little or no ocular motor impairment....
We included 7 eyes of 7 patients with unoperated orbital-wall fractures (3 cases of orbital-floor fractures and 4 cases of medial orbital-wall fractures) with mild or no diplopia who presented to our ...
Hess area ratio and BSV scores at the first visit and after 1 month were 88.6±8.2% and 97.4±3.6% and 49.6±8.5 points and 53.5±6.6 points, respectively, with no significant change (Hess area ratio, P =...
In patients with orbital-wall fractures with little or no eye movement impairment, eye tracker-based saccade analysis showed that the saccade velocity and amplitude did not change during the natural c...
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune condition affecting the neuromuscular junction and causing muscle weakness along with fatigue (myasthenia). When the clinical manifestations of myasthenia gravis are...
An African-American female in her fifties with past medical history of hypertension presented to our outpatient clinic with complaints of blurred vision for two weeks. Her symptoms were associated wit...
Our patient who presented with "blurred vision" was discovered to have binocular diplopia due to significant dysconjugate eye movements. After diligently ruling out central etiologies, we concluded th...
A 51-year-old woman presented with a pressure-like headache behind her right eye and horizontal diplopia. On examination, she was unable to abduct or adduct the right eye but had intact vertical eye m...
