Description |
The tenotomy procedure improves visual acuities and reduces oscillopsia of patients with infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS), acquired pendular nystagmus (APN), and asymmetric, (a)periodic alternating nystagmus (APAN). Our 44-year-old patient had predominantly vertical nystagmus (i.e., downbeat (DBN)), oscillopsia, strabismus, and vertical diplopia of 14 years duration, and adopted a significant chin-down (i.e., upgaze) position for best vision and comfort. Eye-muscle surgery was done in 1993 for diplopia from traumatic 4th N palsy, but no clinical notes were available. |
