Overview
Diplopia may be caused by disorders of the orbit, extraocular muscles, neuromuscular junction dysfuntion, paralysis of the oculomotor, trochlear and abducens nerves, and injuries affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Given the various causes of diplopia, it is important to differentiate between the different causes that lead to diplopia.
Differentiating Diplopia From Other Diseases
Diplopia may be caused by disorders of the orbit, extraocular muscles, neuromuscular junction dysfuntion, paralysis of the oculomotor, trochlear and abducens nerves, and injuries affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Given the various causes of diplopia, it is important to differentiate between the different causes that lead to diplopia. The following table differentiates between various causes of diplopia:
