About Eye Movement Abnormality

Eye movement abnormality is not a single procedure but a diagnostic assessment performed by an ophthalmologist to evaluate conditions affecting the control and coordination of eye movements. This comprehensive evaluation involves a series of clinical tests to analyze how the eyes track objects, move between points (saccades), converge for near vision, and maintain alignment. The specialist assesses for conditions like strabismus (misalignment), nystagmus (involuntary shaking), or gaze palsies. The goal is to diagnose underlying neurological, muscular, or congenital disorders affecting the visual system. This assessment is crucial for determining the cause of symptoms like double vision, blurred vision, dizziness, or reading difficulties, and forms the basis for creating an effective treatment plan, which may include vision therapy, prisms, medication, or in some cases, surgery.

PATIENT REVIEW

I'd been to a couple of...

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Karunakaran actually listened. He asked a lot of questions I hadn't been asked before and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on the standard scans. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I had the surgery at MGM last month and feel like myself again.
