| Abstract |
"Guillain-Barre´ syndrome (GBS) until recently had been viewed as a single disorder with variations. It is now clear from electrophysiologic, pathologic, and immunologic evidence that it actually is a group of different syndromes with several distinctive subtypes (1). Some of these have a different tempo of onset and may require different therapeutic strategies; however, almost all have neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations, including disorders of ocular motility, pupil function, and occasionally, optic nerve function." |
