Pediatric neuro-ophthalmology.
OBJECTIVE
This review will update the ophthalmologist on recent developments in pediatric neuro-ophthalmology.


RESULTS
Research into the genetics of congenital strabismus syndromes has brought new insights into the development of the ocular motor system. There is also new literature on childhood ocular myasthenia gravis and childhood neurosarcoidosis. The results of three different surgical treatments for congenital nystagmus are described. Reviews on cortical visual impairment, dyslexia, Aicardi syndrome, and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis are presented.


CONCLUSIONS
Pediatric neuro-ophthalmology is a diverse and challenging field. As we strive to provide excellent care to these patients, we will use the results of basic science, genetic, and neurobiological research.
