The heavy eye phenomenon: orthoptic and ophthalmic characteristics.

R Taylor1, K Whale, M Raines.   

Abstract

A series is presented of nine patients who demonstrate the heavy eye phenomenon. Illustrations of these patients show the salient features of the phenomenon, including hypotropia, exotropia and pseudoproptosis. The condition is summarized and the pathogenesis of the eye and lid positions are discussed. The indications for surgery and some examples with results are shown. The correct diagnosis may prevent unnecessary investigation of pseudoproptosis and pseudo third-nerve palsy.
