5 A Comparison of Nystagmus and Saccadic Intrusions/OscillationsNystagmus can be classified into pendular and jerk waveforms, where both are generated by a slow, pathologic phase. Corrective phase (the position reset mechanism) differs. In pendular nystagmus, the eyes move back and forth with about the same velocity and amplitude, similar to that of a pendulum...Image
6 A flowchart approach to nystagmus/intrusionsIn tandem with the flowchart, the following added clues should be used to help with etiology: i) vector [horizontal, vertical, torsional]; ii) binocular or monocular; iii) spontaneous or provoked [e.g., BPPV]; iv) change with monocular viewing or gaze direction; v) rest of history, neurologic, and o...Image/StillImage

15 The Acute Vestibular Syndrome in MS Due to Middle Cerebellar Peduncle/Root Entry Zone LesionThis is a 13 year-old girl with relatively abrupt onset vertigo and oscillopsia. On exam, there was primarily right-beating nystagmus in primary gaze with a slight upward (upbeat) component, giving the nystagmus an oblique appearance. The upward component and lack of a clear torsional component acut...Image/MovingImage
