- Eye examination looking for nystagmus ( rhythmical oscillation of the eyeballs) which may be due to disease of the cerebellum; also look for papilledema which may suggest brain tumor or hydrocephalus; look for paralysis of eye movements which may suggest stroke, brain cancer, head injury, Wernicke's encephalopathy due to alcohol abuse
- Neurological examination including gait, tone, power, reflexes and co-ordination in upper and lower limbs looking for signs of stroke, cerebellar disease, transient ischemic attack, multiple sclerosis, brain tumor, Parkinson's disease and other diseases of the nervous system
- Observe for chorea ( non- repetitive abrupt involuntary jerky movements that can cause clumsiness. Causes of chorea include Huntington's chorea, Sydenham's chorea, Wilson's disease and senility
