[Surgical treatment of optical nystagmus (author's transl)].
Effective management improves the sensory-motor state of most optical nystagmus cases. Treatment is always medical and sometimes surgical. Previous complete sensory and motor examinations are necessary. A surgical cure is warranted by the extent of nystagmus, a torticollis, or when a squint is associated. The authors review the various clinical aspects, and their operative plan, which is simple in Kestenbaum's, more delicate in dissociated forms, convergence blockages and nystagmic squints. It is often very difficult in complex nystagmic impairments.
