This new edition of Neurology of Eye Movements is a major revision providing clinicians with a synthesis of current and new scientific information that can be applied to the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of ocular motility. Basic scientists will also benefit from descriptions of how data from anatomic, electrophysiologic, pharmacologic, and imaging studies can be directly applied to the study of disease. By critically reviewing such basic studies, Drs. Leigh and Zee build a conceptual framework that can be applied to the interpretation of abnormal ocular motor behavior at the bedside. These syntheses are summarized in boxes, figures, schematics, and tables. Insights and techniques from current research, case examples, bedside and laboratory studies, and thousands of references are all available here from two leading clinician-scientists who have been studying eye movements for over a quarter century. The previous edition of Neurology of Eye Movements, Third Volume, established as acknowledged as a classic in the field, is now enhanced in this new edition by an accompanying DVD featuring the full text with links to 20 Video Displays that provide teaching slides ready for classroom presentation. Also on the DVD are 200 video clips, images, and the lectures notes Control Systems Applied to the Oculomotor System by David A. Robinson.

"The Neurology of Eye Movements" provides clinicians with a synthesis of current scientific information that can be applied to the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of ocular motility. Basic scientists will also benefit by descriptions of how data from anatomical, electrophysiological, pharmacological, and imaging studies can be directly applied to the study of disease. By critically reviewing such basic studies, the authors build a conceptual framework that can be applied to the interpretation of abnormal ocular motor behavior at the bedside. These syntheses are summarized in displays, new figures, schematics and tables. Early chapters discuss the visual need and neural basis for each functional class of eye movements. Two large chapters deal with the evaluation of double vision and systematically evaluate how many disorders of the central nervous system affect eye movements. This edition has been extensively rewritten and contains many new figures and an up-to-date section on the treatment of abnormal eye movements, such as nystagmus. A major innovation has been the development of an option to read the book from a compact disc, make use of hypertext links (which bridge basic science to clinical issues), and view the major disorders of eye movements in over 60 video clips. This volume will provide pertinent, up-to-date information to neurologists, neuroscientists, ophthalmologists, visual scientists, otolaryngologists, optometrists, biomedical engineers, and psychologists.

(The Neurology of Eye Movements, edition 5, has two interr...)
The Neurology of Eye Movements, edition 5, has two interrelated parts. The first comprises a modern synthesis of the anatomical, physiological, and pharmacological substrate for eye movements, including current views on the reflexive and voluntary control of gaze. This synthesis is based on electrophysiological and inactivation studies in macaque, and behavioural studies in humans that incorporate functional imaging and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in normals, and clinicopathological studies in patients with neurological, visual, or vestibular disorders. Sophisticated experimental paradigms have been applied to both species to explore aspects of cognition, memory, volition, and reward. This large body of research has demonstrated the power of eye movements as experimental tools. The second part of the book applies this synthesis to the clinical and laboratory evaluation of patients with abnormal eye movements due to a broad range of disorders - from muscular dystrophy, and genetic disorders, to dementia, including visual and vestibular conditions. By placing links to figures, tables, boxes, and videos, a synthesis of basic research and clinical findings is provided, that may shed new light on disease processes and provide insights on normal brain function. Readership: Neurologists, ophthalmologists, otolaryngologists, optometrists, neuroscientists, biomedical engineers, psychologists, computation biologists
