1 2-15Vestibular NystagmusDiscussion of vestibular nystagmus. Seen with peripheral disorders and central disorders, and in two varieties: spontaneous and positional. Horizontal jerk with small amplitude.Vestibular Nystagmus; Jerk Nystagmus; Peripheral Vestibular Nystagmus; Positional Nystagmus
2 2-9Monocular Pendular NystagmusExample of a patient with monocular pendular nystagmus, with discussion of situations in which this condition is seen: acquired disorder of the visual-sensory pathway, and acquired disorder of the brain stem (e.g. multiple sclerosis).Monocular Pendular Nystagmus; Sensory Nystagmus; Pendular Nystagmus; Acquired Pendular Nystagmus
3 2-7Abducting (Dissociated) NystagmusExample of a patient with abducting (dissociated) nystagmus. Patient has a subtle internuclear ophthalmoplegia. Right eye has right-beating jerk nystagmus, with smaller oscillations in the left eye. Disease/Diagnosis: Abducting NystagmusAbducting Nystagmus; Dissociated Nystagmus
4 2-10Binocular Pendular NystagmusExample of a patient with binocular pendular nystagmus. Patient has somewhat dissociated nystagmus, with nystagmus seen more prominently in the left eye. Patient shows an occasional jerk nystagmus to the right in the right eye. Left eye oscillations are mostly pendular.Binocular Pendular Nystagmus; Pendular Nystagmus; Acquired Pendular Nystagmus
5 2-16Physiologic (End-Gaze) NystagmusDemonstration of physiological nystagmus, where oscillations do not represent pathology, but occur when the patient's gaze is drawn too far laterally.End-Gaze Nystagmus; Physiologic Nystagmus
6 2-8Rebound NystagmusExample of a patient with rebound nystagmus, where the oscillations alternate direction as the patient shifts gaze in different directions. Discussion of relationship to disease and disorders of the cerebellum, including degenerations of the cerebellum, infarction, and demyelination.Rebound Nystagmus; Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus
7 2-2Latent NystagmusExample of a patient with latent nystagmus. Demonstrates a lack of oscillations in forward gaze, followed by the occlusion of each eye, showing how this generates a jerking oscillation in the non-occluded eye away from the occluded eye.Latent Nystagmus; Fusional Maldevelopment Nystagmus Syndrome
8 2-1Congenital NystagmusExample of patients with congenital nystagmus. First patient's nystagmus are mostly jerk and not pendular. Second patient's nystagmus are mostly pendular. Both patients show a uniform horizontal oscillation. Second patient also shows differences in frequency of oscillations depending on gaze, includ...Congenital Nystagmus
9 NOVEL_Moran_3a-30Congenital NystagmusPatient with congenital nystagmus (no audio)Congenital Nystagmus
10 2-14Dissociated NystagmusExample of a patient with dissociated nystagmus. Demonstrates difference in movements between each eye.Dissociated Nystagmus
11 2-6Downbeat NystagmusExample of patients with downbeating jerk nystagmus. Demonstrates how oscillations grow more prominent when the patient gazes down or laterally. Discusses some causes, including Arnold-Chiari malformation, infarction, and demyelination.Downbeat Nystagmus
12 NOVEL_Moran_3a-1Downbeat NystagmusExample of patient with downbeat nystagmus. Patient is led through instructions of where to gaze. (no audio)Downbeat Nystagmus
13 NOVEL_Moran_3a-9Downbeat NystagmusExample of patient with downbeat nystagmus. Patient is led through instructions of where to gaze.Downbeat Nystagmus
14 NOVEL_Moran_3a-17Retraction NystagmusPatient with retraction nystagmus (no audio)Retraction Nystagmus
15 NOVEL_Moran_3a-22Vestibular NystagmusExample of patient with vestibular nystagmus. Patient is led through instructions for direction of gaze. Shown also with Frenzel goggles.Vestibular Nystagmus
16 2-11Brun's NystagmusObservation of patient with Brun's Nystagmus. Shows patient gazing to the right and the nystagmus beating in the direction of the gaze.Brun's Nystagmus; Cyclical
17 2-12Periodic Alternating NystagmusExample of a patient with periodic alternating nystagmus, showing an alternation between left-beats and right-beats as the patient maintains forward gaze. Nystagmus maintain horizontal direction regardless of position of gaze.Periodic Alternating Nystagmus
18 NOVEL_Moran_3a-36Rotary DownbeatPatient with rotary downbeat nystagmus (no audio)Rotary Downbeat Nystagmus
19 2-13Rotary NystagmusExample of a patient with rotary nystagmus, showing occasional counterclockwise rotary movements of both eyes. Seen more in intrinsic disorders of the brainstem.Rotary (Torsional) Nystagmus
20 2-4See-saw NystagmusExample of a patient with see-saw nystagmus, showing how one eye elevates as the other depresses, with the elevating eye intorting as the depressing eye extorts. Shows vertical oscillations with pendular waveforms. Suggests a large structural lesion in the pericellar region (associated with bi-tempo...See-saw Nystagmus
21 Katz_seesawSee-saw Nystagmus7-year-old female whose mother noticed her eyes "bouncing" for 2 months. Visual acuity 20/70 OD and 20/40 OS, reduced color vision OU, and no afferent pupillary defect. See-saw nystagmus documented with videography. Manual perimetry revealed a complete right homonymous hemianopia. MRI revealed a lar...See-saw Nystagmus
22 2-5Upbeat NystagmusExample of a patient with upbeat nystagmus. Shows vertical jerk nystagmus with fast phases in the up direction. Localizes to brain stem, and occurs with strokes, demyelination, and tumors.Upbeat Nystagmus; Blepharospasm
23 1-8Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia (2 Examples)Two examples of patients with internuclear ophthalmoplegia. First patient has a right internuclear ophthalmoplegia. Patient had subacute bacterial endocarditis with a bacterial abscess in the brain stem. Ductions and gaze to the right look good, but when gazing to the left, the right eye does not ad...Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia; Abducting Nystagmus
24 2-22Voluntary NystagmusExample of patient with voluntary nystagmus. Discussion of how a lack of uniform, patterned movement of the eyes along with associated lid movements suggests that activity is voluntary.Voluntary Nystagmus; Voluntary Flutter
25 2-21Convergence Retraction Nystagmus (Parinaud's Syndrome)Examples of patients with convergence retraction nystagmus. Shows saccadic oscillations in patients looking upwards and following downwards moving targets. Also shows a side-view of the retracting movements of the globes.Convergence Retraction Nystagmus; Parinaud's Syndrome; Dorsal Midbrain Syndrome; Lid Retraction
