Vegetative responses are commonly present during and following epileptic seizures.[onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
Results: Pupillary hippus with a distinct dominant frequency was present in all measures at baseline (mean: 0.62 Hz, SD: 0.213 Hz), and that frequency did not change in any group (P 0.971).[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It was suggested that this hippus is concerned with cumulative asthenopia and/or general fatigue although the origin of hippus is still unknown.[tandfonline.com]
In healthy subjects, hippus is more likely to appear in fatigue and drowsy states ( Bouma & Baghuis, 1971 ; Loewenfeld, 1999 ), and mental activity, such as arithmetic calculation, causes its disappearance.[onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

During the 19th century many clinical correlations of dubious value were made between hippus and various dire afflictions, including especially migraine, epilepsy, neurasthenia, brain tumor, hysteria, syphilis, myasthenia and 1.[jamanetwork.com]

Marked pupillary oscillations can be present in normal subjects or associated with different conditions: diabetic neuropathy, night blindness, Cheyne‐Stokesrespiration, prolonged exposure to video displays, or tabes dorsalis ( Bouma & Baghuis, 1971 ;[onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

In some cases, large and slow pupillary oscillation accompanied by miosis was noted after near vision.[tandfonline.com]
Note the consensual miosis of the control eye due to the increased light capture of the dilated eye, which was significant in the TL group ( P 0.001, blue dashed line ). ( B ) There was no change (treated–control eye) in FFT frequency over time in any[iovs.arvojournals.org]
In contrast to our patient’s case, physiologic hippus is characterized predominantly by miosis.[onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

Design/Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the spontaneous pupillary oscillations of 8 patients with PD at different stages of disease (age 56-86 mean 71) and 11 patients with neurologic disease who were tested because of abnormaleyemovements (age[n.neurology.org]

This suggests that the reduction in hippus following tropicamide is related to blocking the parasympathetic input to the pupil rather than the change in relative SNS and PNS input that occurs during pupil dilation.[iovs.arvojournals.org]
Pathologic hippus, the phenomena of increased oscillation or their amplitude, is associated with aconite poisoning, altered mental status, trauma, cirrhosis, and renal disease; suggesting a common pathway of frontal lobe dysfunction.[grepmed.com]

It is said that hippus once meant a twitching of the eyelids, and that at one time it was synonymous with nystagmus, but for at least 150 years it has referred only to the pupil and has not been used to describe other occular movements.[jamanetwork.com]
The most common diagnosis was nystagmus of unclear etiology. Pupil size of all patients was recorded in the same room with the same lighting using infrared video-oculography at 240 Hz.[n.neurology.org]

Pupillary dilation accompanying epileptic seizures is brought about by a superimposition of both sympathetic excitation and parasympathetic inhibition, as proven by pharmacologic testing ( Klein & Early, 1948 ).[onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
