What’s with the involuntary rolling up of the eyes?

Involuntary upward rolling of the eyes may be caused by overuse of the eyes, paralytic spasm of the extraocular muscles, oculomotor neuropathy, facial neuritis and other factors.
1. Excessive eye use: When you use your eyes excessively, the eye muscles are in a state of tension, which can easily lead to eye spasms and make your eyes roll upward unconsciously.
2. Extraocular muscle paralysis and spasm: the lower rectus muscle is paralyzed and weak, resulting in the eyeball can not be turned downward, but the upper rectus muscle is normal, and the eyes can be unconsciously rolled upward.
3. Actinic neuropathy: the actinic nerve innervates the lower rectus muscle, and actinic neuropathy can lead to paralysis of the extraocular muscles, resulting in involuntary upward rolling of the eyes.
4. Facial neuritis: Facial neuritis can cause peripheral facial nerve paralysis, the eyelids can not close completely when the eyes are closed, and the eyes can appear uncontrolled upward rolling performance.
5. Other factors: foreign bodies in the eye, inverted eyelashes, epilepsy, strabismus, dry eye and other factors can also trigger the performance of the eyes unconsciously upward.
