Description Saccadic intrusions (SI) are spontaneous abnormal eye movements that occur due to a number of neurologic conditions, and are indicative of Pathology in a wide variety of neuroanatomical sites. Square wave jerks, macro-saccadic oscillations, and ocular flutter have been described in case reports and short series of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The prevalence of SI in the general MS population has not been systematically studied.
