Additional Info
- 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"
- Ophthalmoplegia is the paralysis or weakness of the eye muscles. It can affect one or more of the six muscles that hold the eye in place and control its movement.
There are two types of ophthalmoplegia: chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia and internal ophthalmoplegia.
