Arch Neurol 47:817-818, Newman,N.J.&Lessell,S., 1990
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
A 27-year-old man presented with an isolated,pupil-sparing,partial third- nerve palsy.Etiologic investigations proved unrevealing.Subsequent development of an optic neuropathy prompted magnetic resonance imaging, which confirmed the clinical suspicion of multiple sclerosis.Rarely does multiple sclerosis present with oculomotor nerve involvement.
