Abstract:
A variety of eyelid movement abnormalities have been attributed to lesions of the central nervous system. Apraxia of lid movements, and especially of lid opening, has received the least attention. We present 2 cases of lid opening apraxia and propose that this abnormality may be due to right hemisphere dysfunction.
