Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Strabismus is typically caused by issues with the muscles and/or nerves controlling eye movements, such as damage to the oculomotor, trochlear, or abducens nerves, or paralysis of the extrinsic muscles of the eye. However, damage to the optic nerve, which transmits visual information from the eye to the brain, would not directly cause strabismus.
