Abstract

The ocular vasospastic syndrome in adults has been described earlier. It is characterized by fluctuating visual field disturbances in patients with a tendency towards vasospasm in different organs. The main general symptoms are cold hands, migraine, and a tendency towards low blood-pressure. Some patients with ocular vasospasm may end up with a ‘normal-tension glaucoma’.In the present report the authors describe children with blurred vision and visual field defects, the cause of which, most probably, is vasospasm as well. The visual field defects disappeared or improved markedly after anti-vasospastic therapy.
