| Abstract |
A student was diagnosed as having Wilson's disease only after the severe, intermittent inability to open his eyes led him to seek neurologic evaluation. Although lid-opening apraxia is usually a symptom of diffuse extrapyramidal disease, it has not previously been reported in Wilson's disease. |
