The w.e.b.i.n.o. syndrome

Abstract

The ophthalmological findings in four cases of the w.e.b.i.n.o. byndronie are presented. The clinical features suggest that the syndrome, of wall-eyed bilateral inter-nuclear ophthalmoplegia is caused by a lesion in the pons. The associated abnormality of vergence eye movements suggests that these are also generated in the pons.

Key Words:

• wall eyed inter-nuclear ophthalmoplegia
• absent convergence
• pons
