Abstract |
"In this chapter, we consider disorders that produce ocular motor dysfunction from involvement of the extraocular muscles. Some of these disorders affect only the extraocular muscles, whereas others are multisystem disorders in which various organ systems are also affected. The classification that is used is modified from Walton et al. (1), which should be consulted by readers interested in pursuing the subject of muscle disorders." |
