Possible Causes for ocular flutter Opsoclonus-Myoclonus Syndrome A 67-year-old woman presented with a complex partial seizure and evolving ocular flutter, opsoclonus, myoclonus and 'cerebellar' signs, all of which improved spontaneously [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov] Saccadic movements are termed opsoclonus when multidirectional and ocular flutter when in horizontal plane. [n.neurology.org] It should be noted that ocular flutter and opsoclonus fall along a spectrum, and it is possible for ocular flutter to progress to opsoclonus. [aao.org] Diazinon Poisoning On the basis of clinical observation the saccadic oscillations were presumed to be opsoclonus and ocular flutter. [jnnp.bmj.com] Fixation was interrupted by ocular flutter and occasional opsoclonus. He had a 3 Hz jaw tremor and occasional myoclonus, more prominent on the right. [jnnp.bmj.com] Ocular flutter is a saccadic oscillation similar to opsoclonus, characterised by involuntary horizontal eye movements without an intersaccadic interval. [jnnp.bmj.com] Malnutrition Differential diagnosis Nystagmus should be distinguished from inappropriate saccades that prevent steady fixation (eg, ocular flutter). [patient.info] Medial Sclerosis Several types occur in patients with MS: square wave jerks, opsoclonus and ocular flutter (17). [tidsskriftet.no] Ocular flutter refers to small, high frequency eye movements in the horizontal plane (11). Up to one in five patients with MS experiences pathological nystagmus (17).

[patient.info] Central Positional Vertigo In ocular flutter, the same pattern is restricted to the horizontal plane. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com] (G) A burst of saccades without an intersaccadic interval (ocular flutter), typically at a frequency of 10–15 cycles per second. [jnnp.bmj.com] Ocular flutter or hypermetric saccades can be seen as opsoclonus improves.
