Convergence nystagmus
Convergence nystagmus consists of slow abduction of the eyes, followed by rapid adduction.
There is often an associated rhythmical retraction of the eyes termed nystagmus retractorius.
The cause is a lesion in the ventral midbrain, usually a tumour or infarct, and is usually associated with other features of Parinaud's syndrome.
