Abstract

Oculomotor function was investigated in 39 patients with a previous soft-tissue injury of the cervical spine. The velocity, the accuracy, and the pattern of the eye movements were disturbed in 20 patients with chronic and disabling symptoms. Oculomotor function in the 19 asymptomatic patients did not differ from a control group. The oculomotor function seems to be impaired, possibly by brain stem lesions, in patients with chronic symptoms of whiplash injury of the cervical spine.
