EFNS task force--therapy of nystagmus and oscillopsia

A Straube et al. Eur J Neurol. 2004 Feb.

Abstract

An overview of possible treatment options for oculomotor disorders that prevent clear vision is given. Downbeat nystagmus, upbeat nystagmus, seesaw nystagmus, periodic alternating nystagmus, acquired pendular nystagmus, and saccadic oscillations such as opsoclonus/ocular flutter are discussed. In addition, superior oblique myokymia and vestibular paroxysmia are reviewed. All treatment recommendations available in the literature are classified as class C only. In general, only some of the patients benefit from the treatment.
