Abstract
Guillain–Barre syndrome (GBS) is a rapid-onset weakness caused by the immune syste damaging the peripheral nervous system. Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a variant of GBS characterized by weakness of the eye muscles, abnormalities in coordination, and absent reflexes. The symptoms may develop over the course of hours to a few weeks. Although rare, it has a tendency to recur, mostly affects younger age groups and may have a long duration of course resulting in significant psychological and economical impact. However, it remains a less reported and studied entity. There is a need for a detailed study to provide recommendations for proper diagnosis and management to reduce the morbidity as well as the adverse psychological, social, and economic impact.
