Preferred Label : adie syndrome;
MeSH definition : A syndrome characterized by a TONIC PUPIL that occurs in combination with decreased
lower extremity reflexes. The affected pupil will respond more briskly to accommodation
than to light (light-near dissociation) and is supersensitive to dilute pilocarpine
eye drops, which induce pupillary constriction. Pathologic features include degeneration
of the ciliary ganglion and postganglionic parasympathetic fibers that innervate the
pupillary constrictor muscle. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed,
p279);
MeSH synonym : adie's syndrome; syndrome, holmes-adie; syndrome, adie's; holmes-adie syndrome; holmes adie syndrome; syndrome, adie; poorly reacting pupils; poorly reacting pupil; pupil, poorly reacting; pupils, poorly reacting;
