    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Inferior oblique palsy is a condition affecting eye movement.
    • Understanding its etiology and prognosis is crucial for patient management.

    Observation:

    • This study reviewed eleven cases of inferior oblique palsy.
    • Patient follow-up ranged from six months to four years.

    Findings:

    • Congenital, traumatic, and presumed vascular causes were identified.
    • No instances of central nervous system tumors, infections, or myasthenia gravis were observed.
    • The condition demonstrated a benign clinical course in all cases.

    Implications:

    • Inferior oblique palsy is generally a self-limiting or stable condition.
    • It is important to rule out serious underlying pathologies, though they appear rare.
    • Further research into specific vascular etiologies may be warranted.
