Eye Movement Disorders

Eye movement disorders refer to conditions that affect how the eyes move and work together. These disorders can result in problems such as difficulty focusing on objects, an inability to coordinate eye movements, or uncontrolled movements like shaking or twitching. Common types include strabismus (crossed eyes), nystagmus (involuntary eye movements), and saccadic disorders (trouble making quick eye movements). These issues can impact daily activities like reading or driving and might be caused by various factors, including neurological disorders, injuries, or congenital conditions. Proper diagnosis and treatment are essential for managing symptoms and improving visual function.
