Central horizontal oculomotor syndromes

Central horizontal (or lateral) oculomotor syndromes lead to abduction and/or adduction palsy with horizontal diplopia, but with preservation of convergence.
1. Internuclear ophthalmoplegia (ipsilateral adduction palsy and horizontal diplopia), due to involvement of the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF) between nuclei (n) VI and III.
2. Horizontal gaze palsy (abduction and adduction palsy), due to involvement of nucleus VI.
3. “One-and-a-half” syndrome (total lateral palsy of the ipsilateral eye and adduction of the contralateral eye), due to involvement of nucleus VI and the MLF on the same side; Exceptionally, both nuclei VI may be involved simultaneously, resulting in bilateral palsy of lateral eye movements. It should be noted that, in the case of internuclear ophthalmoplegia or “one-and-a-half” syndrome, a monocular nystagmus of the eye in abduction is observed, the origin of which is unclear.
