Delayed visual maturation with oculomotor involvement presented as nystagmus and poor visual awareness in infants. Symptoms resolved by 5 months, with normal development and ophthalmological assessments at follow-up.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neuroscience
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Infants can present with visual and oculomotor disturbances in early life.
  • Early diagnosis and understanding of visual development are crucial for neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Observation:

  • Two infants exhibited high-frequency nystagmus and limited visual awareness within the first three months of life.
  • Initial examinations, including neurodevelopmental assessments, visual evoked potentials, electroretinograms, and MRI, revealed no abnormalities.

Findings:

  • Both infants demonstrated improved visual responsiveness and reduced nystagmus amplitude by two months.
  • Nystagmus resolved completely by five months of age, with all infants appearing visually, developmentally, and neurologically normal.
  • Long-term follow-up confirmed sustained normal ophthalmological and neurological status.

Implications:

  • This case suggests delayed visual maturation can manifest with significant oculomotor signs.
  • Early identification and monitoring are key for infants with such symptoms.
  • The condition appears to have a favorable prognosis with appropriate follow-up.
