title: Unusual ocular motility disturbances with increased intracranial pressure.
abstract: We evaluated nine patients with external ophthalmoparesis and increased intracranial pressure. The eye movements normalized when the intracranial pressure was controlled. Investigations for an underlying cause of elevated cerebrospinal fluid pressure are warranted when ocular motility disorders are present.
