Chapter 19 Neuro-ophthalmologic assessment and investigations in children and adults with cerebellar diseases

We describe the approach for assessing specific eye movements linked to cerebellar function, discuss appropriate eye movement laboratory tests, and summarize recent related research findings. In addition, for each laboratory test, we discuss its advantages, disadvantages, indications, and interpretations. Furthermore, we provide differential diagnoses for specific ocular motor and vestibular abnormalities such as slow saccades or impaired vestibulo-ocular reflexes.
