Habitual head turning in spasmus nutans: an oculographic study.

Head turning in patients with spasmus nutans seems to transiently dampen the nystagmus. This was evident in two children by clinical observation and electrooculographic recording. The suppression of the nystagmus may have been mediated by the vestibular system.

Near-evoked nystagmus in spasmus nutans.

Near-evoked nystagmus was evident in two children with spasmus nutans by clinical observation and electro-oculographic recording. In one child the nystagmus appeared to be evoked by fusional convergence and in the other by convergence-accommodation. These cases represent an atypical form of spasmus nutans in which the nystagmus is modulated by centers controlling visuomotor changes with near viewing.
