| Description |
Johnson described two types of adherence syndromes associated with defective eye movements. In one type, there were adhesions between the sheaths of the lateral rectus and inferior oblique muscles that made it impossible to abduct the eye. The disorder was usually bilateral. The second type was characterized by adherence between the sheaths of the superior rectus and superior oblique muscles, preventing elevation of the affected eye. |
