  • Neurologic symptoms can sometimes signal celiac disease (CD), and two children with ocular paroxysmal non-epileptic events (PNEEs) were diagnosed with CD.
  • A review of 12 patients showed that 25% were also diagnosed with CD after presenting with similar symptoms.
  • Screening for CD in patients displaying PNEEs may be beneficial in order to avoid unnecessary testing and to quickly implement a gluten-free diet, potentially improving their condition.
