Ocular Motor Nerve Palsies in Children

  • Chapter
Pediatric Neuro-Ophthalmology

Abstract

Ocular motor nerve palsies in children pose a different clinical paradigm than in adults and require a specialized knowledge base for proper evaluation and treatment. Children with acute ocular motor nerve palsies come to medical attention because of diplopia, abnormal head posture, ptosis, ocular misalignment, or systemic disease. Those with chronic ocular motor nerve palsies are often referred because of strabismic amblyopia.
