Conjugate eye deviation (CED) in patients with acute supratentorial lesions is generally directed ipsilateral to the lesioned hemisphere. Incidentally, CED occurs to the contralateral side. We report five new cases and review previously published reports to elucidate the lesion responsible for and the mechanism underlying this phenomenon.
