Background: Eyelid nystagmus is a rare clinical phenomenon described mostly related to brainstem or cerebellum lesions. The mechanism of this phenomenon is incompletely understood.
Patients And Methods: We report 2 cases of eyelid nystagmus induced by carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine intoxication.
Conclusions: Carbamazepine and derivatives may induce eyelid nystagmus in the setting of acute intoxication. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first cases of drug-related eyelid nystagmus.

We present 3 pediatric cases of acquired torticollis caused by a foreign body beneath the upper eyelid. The head posturing presumably developed to minimize contact of the foreign body with the corneal surface and mitigate ocular discomfort.
