Supranuclear palsy
Supranuclear palsy is a rare brain condition that causes serious problems with walking, eye movements, and balance. The disorder develops slowly over time as the cells in parts of the brain that control movement are destroyed. Although there is no cure, there are ways to manage its symptoms.
