    This case report details myopic myositis, a rare condition causing strabismus fixus convergens in a high myope. The study explores potential diagnoses and the condition's causes.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Myopic myositis is a rare inflammatory condition affecting extraocular muscles in individuals with high myopia.
    • Strabismus fixus convergens is an uncommon form of strabismus characterized by fixed inward turning of the eye.

    Observation:

    • A 46-year-old patient with high myopia presented with symptoms suggestive of strabismus fixus convergens.
    • Clinical examination and diagnostic workup confirmed the presence of myopic myositis as the underlying cause.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights the association between myopic myositis and the development of strabismus fixus convergens.
    • Differential diagnoses for this presentation were considered, including other orbital inflammatory conditions and types of strabismus.

    Implications:
