Ocular motor mononeuropathies affect cranial nerves III, IV and VI and are more frequent in diabetes mellitus, with oculomotor nerve involvement being predominant. The aim of this narrative brief review was to discuss the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of ocular motor nerve palsies in subjects with diabetes. Clinical manifestations often include ptosis, diplopia, and periorbital pain. A characteristic of third nerve palsy is pupillary sparing. Differential diagnosis may be challenging due to overlapping symptoms with nerve palsies of other aetiologies. Treatment includes optimised glycaemic control and management of vascular risk factors. Neuroprotective agents, mainly alpha-lipoic acid and botulinum toxin A have been occasionally used, as well. Spontaneous recovery is also seen in many cases.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the group at highest risk for autoimmune inflammation through a comparative analysis among patients with chronic post-traumatic uveitis (CPTU).
Material And Methods: The clinical group included 50 patients (aged 18 to 87 years, mean age 41±2.6 years) with CPTU resulting from penetrating injury, contusion, or intraocular surgery.

Motor behaviours, like where to step and which path to walk, rely on gaze shifts to gather visual information necessary to decide the next action. Factors influencing both gaze and walking decisions are poorly understood. Here we had people choose between two paths to determine how a person's belief in their ability to walk across different terrains (i.

Article Synopsis
- Parkinson's disease (PD) is primarily known for its motor symptoms, but research is highlighting its significant effects on non-motor functions, particularly ocular health.
- This review discusses the connection between PD and various common eye diseases, including dry eye disease and cataracts, emphasizing that these ocular issues can serve as early indicators of PD.
- Future studies should focus on exploring links between PD and additional eye conditions, like myopia, to develop better treatment approaches for patients.

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a critical global health issue characterized by perturbance in cerebral function attributed to mechanical force. TBI often precipitates significant visual impairment that negatively impacts the patients' quality of life. This review examines the effects of TBI on visual function from a neuro-ophthalmological perspective, focusing on the assessment, diagnostics, and management of associated sequelae.
