MR imaging in both patients demonstrated unremarkable anterior optic pathways and optic tracts. No additional midline central nervous system abnormalities, migrational anomalies, space-occupying lesions, or destructive processes were noted. These cases demonstrate that the achiasmatic syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis of congenital nystagmus and may be overlooked without careful MR imaging evaluation.}, issn = {0195-6108}, URL = {https://www.ajnr.org/content/28/2/392}, eprint = {https://www.ajnr.org/content/28/2/392.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Neuroradiology} }
