Abstract:
The case of a two year-old boy is described with dancing eyes syndrome (DES) together with ganglioneuroblastoma. Surgical removal of the tumour and ACTH therapy resulted in rapid improvement, and an almost symptome-free condition. The literature is reviewed. Need of vigorous search for an occult neuroblastoma in DES is pointed out, since the early diagnosis and tumour's surgery can significantly improve the outcome.

Accessory Structures of the Eye
Optical perception, or vision, is an extraordinary sense dependent on converting light signals received via the ocular organs. These organs, known as eyes, are securely positioned within the bony cavities of the skull, called orbits. The orbits serve a dual purpose: a protective shield for the ocular globes and a stable attachment point for the soft ocular tissues. The eye's external protective mechanisms include the eyelids, which are edged with lashes that act as a barrier against foreign...
Photoreceptors and Visual Pathways
At the molecular level, visual signals trigger transformations in photopigment molecules, resulting in changes in the photoreceptor cell's membrane potential. The photon's energy level is denoted by its wavelength, with each specific wavelength of visible light associated with a distinct color. The spectral range of visible light, classified as electromagnetic radiation, spans from 380 to 720 nm. Electromagnetic radiation wavelengths exceeding 720 nm fall under the infrared category, whereas...
