The electrically evoked blink reflex (BR) consists of an ipsilateral R1 component (R1) at 11 ms and two bilateral components R2 at 33 ms and R3 at 83 ms. It is still unclear whether the R2 is mediated by activation of tactile or nociceptive afferents. For testing the nociceptive hypothesis, nocicept

The optically evoked blink reflex (BR) was recorded in 30 patients (20 females, 10 males) with primary acute optic neuritis (ON) unassociated with other CNS disorders. The reflex was studied in the acute stage between the 1st and 6th day after onset, during the 1st month following the acute stage on
Pattern shift visual evoked potentials, brain stem auditory evoked potentials, spinal and scalp recorded somatosensory evoked potentials, and electrically elicited blink reflexes were investigated in 32 patients with isolated optic neuritis. Eleven patients were shown to have one additional lesion i
