Does ALS Cause Afferent Pupillary Defect?

[Reedy22]

Quick question... Does ALS Cause Afferent Pupillary Defect? I just got back from the Neuro and he noted this as well as the absence of a plantar response. Is this something ALS causes? He said he suspects MS, so I have many tests to undergo. But I did want to know if ALS can cause this RAPD, so that I can rule it out if not.

Thank you.

No it does not. It is seen in MS sometimes.
