title: Eye findings in autonomic hyperreflexia.
abstract: Autonomic hyperreflexia is a phenomenon seen in quadriplegic patients involving hyperactivity and dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. Unilateral lid retraction, mydriasis, and relative exophthalmos were observed in a young man having unilateral autonomic hyperreflexia, demonstrating that sympathetic discharge to the eye may be a part of this syndrome.
