Paradoxical robust visual evoked potentials in young patients with cortical blindness
Wygnanski-Jaffe T et al. - The commonality among the cases was the presence of suspected cortical visual impairment with seizures and developmental delay. VEP acuity cannot be correlated unequivocally with visually guided behaviour. In specific cases, particularly cases with developmental delay and neuroradiographic abnormalities, a child who is behaviorally blind with no clinical evidence of vision may show robust VEPs even to small patterns. This finding might be consistent with a defect of the visual association cortex. [more...]
