Seen in women post infection
Ass with loss or diminished deep tendon reflexes

Horner’s syndrome
Ptosis, miosis, enopthalmos with kr without ass anhydrosis
Marcus gunn pupil
RAPD
Where pupil constricts less or appears to dilate when light is strung from unaffected to affected side most commonly dueto damage of optic nerve
