[Paradoxical pupillary reaction to light -- a pupillographic study (author's transl)]

A report given of a 32-year-old female patient who exhibited a unilateral paradoxical pupillary reaction to light, but was obviously healthy in all other respects. All of the neuroophthalmological findings, including the infrared reflex-pupillographic results registered, are indicated and discussed in detail in the report. An analysis of the findings leads to the conclusion that this disturbance has a central, prenuclear location. Apart from a stenosis at the junction of the arteria vertebralis, which was determined angiographically, further examination did not reveal any pathological findings.
