Neuro-ophthalmology.
Eye movement research during the last year is discussed.  The review covers the fields of:  memory-guided saccades in supplementary motor area lesions, and the vertical saccadic system; cerebral hemispheric localization of smooth pursuit asymmetry; oculomotor disturbances in Wallenberg's syndrome; locomotory gaze instability in vestibular dysfunction; smooth pursuit disorders in vermal infarct; physiologic end-point and rebound nystagmus and the results of surgical and optical treatment of manifest latent nystagmus; clinical/magnetic resonance imaging correlations in abnormalities of horizontal gaze; mesencephalic cholinergic nuclei in progressive supranuclear palsy; as well as mesencephalic damage in diabetic third nerve palsy, divisional oculomotor nerve paresis; and new hypotheses on eye muscle susceptibility in myasthenia gravis.
