Background: Essential Tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder, yet the location of the primary disease substrate continues to be a matter of debate. In this study, we aimed to evaluate ocular movement abnormalities with Electrooculography (EOG) in patients with ET to find a possible location of disease pathology. Methods: Electrooculographic evaluation including saccade, tracking, optokinetic, gaze and positional tests were performed to 36 ET patients and 36 healthy subjects. Patient age on the onset of the tremor, duration of the disease, characteristics and the location of the tremor were also investigated. Fahn- Tolosa-Marin tremor rating scale was used to determine the tremor severity. Differences of abnormal test results between patient and control groups were analysed with Pearson’s and Fisher’s Exact and correlation analyses of EOG tests and clinical data were performed with Spearman’s and Pearson’s correlation tests. Results: There was not any significant difference in EOG tests between the ET patients and controls. Significant correlation was only found between EOG abnormality and patient age in correlation analyses. Conclusions: Our results showed that ET patients may not have specific EOG test abnormalities. These tests would be used especially in the different diagnosis of other movement disorders.

Abstract Background Demyelinating central nervous system diseases include several disorders that multiple sclerosis (MS) is identified as the most common among them. Ocular movement disturbances are a typical presentation in MS patients where lesions affect the complex and interconnected pathways involved in eye motion. Centers for gaze control are located in the pons primarily; therefore, lesions involving these centers can be presented with abnormalities in gaze. However, bilateral lesions in pontine gaze centers are exceptionally rare. Case presentation A 16-year-old girl with bilateral horizontal gaze palsy was referred to the neurology clinic. Magnetic resonance imaging of the patient indicated bilateral hyperintensities in the pons at the level of the paramedian pontine reticular formation. The patient was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis with respect to clinical and imaging findings and managed. Conclusion Ocular movement abnormalities are a commonly encountered manifestation in patients with multiple sclerosis, however, bilateral gaze palsy is an exceptionally rare sign and should guide the physician to contemplate for anticipated lesions in the pons, and suspect MS, especially in childbearing-aged women. Although an extensive workup should also be done to rule out possible mimickers.

A 14-year-old boy who had ocular motility disorder which started 2 weeks following retinal surgery (scleral buckling) secondary to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, was referred to the strabismus clinic. He had significant ocular movement limitations in adduction and elevation under general anesthesia. The forced duction test (FDT) was positive in both adduction and elevation. After buckle removal, FDT was negative. The eye was orthotropic without ocular movement limitation at final follow-up. In conclusion, FDT at the end of the scleral buckling procedure needs to be performed. It may prevent restrictive strabismus after scleral buckling surgery.
