- laterality nystagmus
- voluntary nystagmus
- fatigue nystagmus; from an extreme or unsupported gaze
pathological nystagmus

Therapeutic approach
OCULAR TORCICOLLO
Definition and general aspects
etiopathogenesis
Compensatory stiff necks improve visual function
- from refractive anomalies
- from perimetric anomalies
- from nystagmus (congenital; manifest latent strabismus; in congenital monophthalmos, sensory N, acute nystagmus)
Incomitant squint in:
fracture (s) of the orbital walls
thyroid myopathy
Exophthalmos
Ptosis and eyelid malformations
