Abstract

A young woman presented with blurred vision due to anticholinergic syndrome. We highlight the importance of considering this condition in the context of multiple medications and increased anticholinergic burden. The documented pupil abnormality gives an opportunity to review the syndrome of the reverse (inverse) Argyll Robertson pupil (preserved pupil light response with loss of accommodation). We review other situations in which the reverse Argyll Robertson pupil may occur and its possible mechanism in this case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
