Abstract

The incidence of ocular complications in 4102 patients with meningitis was studied during a 15 year period. Cranial nerve involvement was detected in 23\% of patients (sixth cranial nerve in 16.5\%; third and seventh nerve in 3.0\% each; and fourth and fifth nerve in 0.1\% each). Pupillary changes were detected in 82\% and fundus changes in 5.2\% of patients.
