Conjugate eye deviations as dyskinesias induced by levodopa in Parkinson's disease
1Clinical Neuroscience Center, Sinai Hospital, West Bloomfield, Michigan 48322, USA.
Abstract:
Involuntary upward and lateral eye movements are described in two Parkinson's disease patients who also experience levodopa-induced choreoathetoid limb movements simultaneously. These brief deviations of gaze represent a rare ocular manifestation of dyskinesia and are similar to oculogyric movements resulting from other causes.
