| pubmed-article:8810240 | pubmed:abstractText | Lateralization, suggesting misrouting of optic nerve fibers in albinism, was examined by the flash visual evoked potentials (flash VEP) test in dissociated vertical deviation (DVD). Eighteen cases of DVD were studied and compared with 5 cases of X-recessive ocular albinism and 4 normal controls. Full-field monocular and binocular stimulation was employed with electroencepharograph electrodes on O1 and O2 (10/20 system), and the latency of P100 was statistically analysed with two-way analysis of variance. The difference in the P100 latency between contralateral and ipsilateral stimulation was significant (p < 0.05) in albinism, but not in DVD and normal controls. Therefore, DVD is probably not associated with misrouting of optic nerve fibers. | lld:pubmed |
