Abstract

Three infants initially thought to be blind by behavioral criteria had normal visual acuities measured by visual-evoked potentials. Contraversive deviation of the eyes on rotation of the head was present. All three later developed the characteristic head thrust of congenital ocular motor apraxia. Thus, a normal visual-evoked potential provides a significant diagnostic clue in infants with normal ophthalmoscopic findings but abnormal visual behavior.
