Abstract
Oculomotor disturbances are rare in Kugelberg-Welander disease. The following oculomotor dysfunctions were found in a 27-year-old male: bilateral horizontal and vertical gaze paresis, convergence palsy, and divergence strabismus. Optokinetic nystagmus and the doll's head phenomenon could not be induced. Bell's phenomenon was markedly impaired. The main neuronal damage seems to be in midbrain and pontine integrative centres for ocular motility within the reticular formation.
