1 Abnormal Visually-Enhanced VOR in Cerebellar Ataxia, Neuropathy, Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome (CANVAS)A 67 year old woman presented with 1 year of progressive numbness, gait instability, and oscillopsia when walking or with head movements. Examination showed excessive square-wave jerks, bilateral horizontal gaze-evoked nystagmus, impairment of the visually-enhanced vestibular ocular reflex (vVOR - s...Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal VOR; Abnormal HIT; Cerebellar; Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze Evoked Nystagmus
2 Anti-GAD Associated Cerebellopathy and Bilateral VestibulopathyThis is a 70-year-old woman with the subacute onset of severe imbalance and dizziness. On her initial examination, she had prominent gaze-evoked nystagmus and bilateral vestibular loss. Smooth pursuit was saccadic, although her vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) suppression was much smoother. Usually pur...Abnormal Pursuit; Normal VORS; VOR Abnormal; HIT Abnormal; Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze Evoked Nystagmus
3 Five Common Ocular Motor Signs in Cerebellar Disorders - Saccadic Hypermetria, Saccadic Pursuit & VOR Suppression, Gaze-evoked & Rebound Nystagmus(1) Saccadic hypermetria - an overshoot of the visual target (2) Saccadic smooth pursuit - due to impaired pursuit and low gain, saccades are needed to keep up with the visual target. This gives it a ‘choppy' appearance. (3) Saccadic vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) suppression - another...Abnormal Saccades; Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal Vestibulo-ocular Reflex (VOR) Suppression; Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze-evoked Nystagmus; Rebound Nystagmus; Cerebellar Oms
4 Impaired Smooth Pursuit and Other Characteristic Ocular Motor Findings in Middle Cerebellar Peduncle Stroke𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 50-year-old woman who underwent resection of a left-sided acoustic neuroma, and post-operatively, she had vertigo, binocular diplopia, left hemi-ataxia and severe gait ataxia. MR diffusion weighted imaging demon...Abnormal Pursuit; VOR-HIT Abnormal; Abnormal Alignment; Vestibulocochlear Nerve; OMS Pons; Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus; Bruns Nystagmus; Vestibular Nystagmus; Acute Vestibular Syndrome
5 Ocular Motor Signs in Early Progressive Supranuclear Palsy𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 64-year old man who experienced imbalance and falls (usually backwards) for the last 6 months. He experienced difficulty navigating stairs and had become a messy eater (thought to be in large part due to his ver...Abnormal Saccades; Abnormal Convergence; Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal Range; Abnormal VORS; Vertical Gaze Palsy; Downgaze Palsy; OMS Mesencephalon
6 Ocular Motor Signs in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP)𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 65-yo-woman complaining of imbalance and double vision. She had significant convergence insufficiency (and would close her right eye with near viewing), providing an explanation for her diplopia. Convergence ins...Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal Range; Upgaze Palsy; Downgaze Palsy; Mesencephalon; Square Wave Jerks
7 Ocular Motor Signs of Cerebellar Ataxia - Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus, Saccadic Pursuit, and VOR Supression𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 30-year-old woman with a several year long history of imbalance due to cerebellar ataxia of unclear etiology. Seen in this video are common ocular motor signs in patients with advanced cerebellar dysfunction inc...Jerk Nystagus; Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus; Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal VORS; Rebound Nystagmus
8 Paraflocculus (Tonsillar) Ocular Motor Syndrome and Dysmetria in a Chiari Malformation - Pre and Post-Operative Exams𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 25-year-old woman presenting with 6 months or progressive imbalance, binocular vertical diplopia, and occipital headaches, which were brought on or aggravated by coughing or sneezing. Examination demonstrated hy...Saccades; Skew Diviation; VOR Supression; Pursuit; Medulla
9 Saccadic Smooth Pursuit and Vestibulo-ocular Reflex Suppression (VORS)𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 20-yo-man who suffered a left MCA stroke years prior. Upon evaluation of his eye movements, saccades and all classes of eye movements were normal, although his smooth pursuit and VORS were choppy to the left (ip...Smooth Pursuit; Vestibulo-ocular Reflex (VOR) Supression
10 Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 with Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus and Bilateral Vestibular Loss𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This is a 50-year-old woman with an established diagnosis of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA 3) with severe imbalance and head movement-induced oscillopsia. On examination, she had 1) bilateral vestibular loss (BVL) de...Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze-Evoked Nystagmus; Abnormal VOR-HIT; Eighth Nerve; Abnormal Pursuit
11 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...Jerk Nystagmus; Vestibular Nystagmus; Vestibulo-ocular Reflex; Head Impulse Testing; Gaze-evoked Nystagmus
