| Description |
In this section, we describe the clinical features of three common forms of nystagmus thought to be caused by imbalance of central vestibular connections: downbeat, upbeat, and torsional nystagmus. We also discuss the less common phenomenon of horizontal nystagmus caused by central vestibular imbalance. Finally, we offer a pathophysiologic scheme to account for these forms of central vestibular nystagmus. |
