Abstract:
The incidence of ocular complications in 4102 patients with meningitis was studied during a 15 year period. Cranial nerve involvement was detected in 23% of patients (sixth cranial nerve in 16.5%; third and seventh nerve in 3.0% each; and fourth and fifth nerve in 0.1% each). Pupillary changes were detected in 82% and fundus changes in 5.2% of patients.
