When you look at an object, you're using several muscles to move both eyes to focus on it. If you have a problem with the muscles, the eyes don't work properly.
There are many kinds of eye movement disorders. Two common ones are
Strabismus - a disorder in which the two eyes don't line up in the same direction. This results in "crossed eyes" or "walleye."
Nystagmus - fast, uncontrollable movements of the eyes, sometimes called "dancing eyes"
Some eye movement disorders are present at birth. Others develop over time and may be associated with other problems, such as injuries. Treatments include glasses, patches, eye muscle exercises, and surgery. There is no cure for some kinds of eye movement disorders, such as most kinds of nystagmus.
MalaCards based summary : Ocular Motility Disease, also known as ocular motility disorders, is related to fibrosis of extraocular muscles, congenital, 2 and pathologic nystagmus, and has symptoms including ophthalmoplegia, eye manifestations and hyperexplexia. An important gene associated with Ocular Motility Disease is TUBB3 (Tubulin Beta 3 Class III). Affiliated tissues include eye, testes and brain, and related phenotype is cellular. Wikipedia : 76 Eye movement includes the voluntary or involuntary movement of the eyes, helping in acquiring, fixating... more... |
