Parinaud's syndrome is a constellation of neurological signs indicating injury to the dorsal midbrain. More specifically, compression of the vertical gaze center at the rostral interstitial nucleus of medial longitudinal fasciculus (riMLF).
Signs and symptoms typically seen in this condition include: [2] The eyelid(s) may appear to droop. Droopy eyelids can give the face a false appearance of being fatigued, uninterested or even sinister. The eyelid may not protect the eye as effectively, allowing it to dry.
