Eyeballs that do not rotate can be caused by thyroid-related eye disease, extraocular muscle paralysis, eye trauma, orbital pathology and other factors.
1. Thyroid-related ophthalmopathy: People with thyroid-related ophthalmopathy may have symptoms such as blepharoconstriction, widening of the eyelid fissure, and slow movement of the upper eyelid, which may lead to dysfunction of the extraocular muscles controlling eye movement, resulting in the appearance of the eyeballs not rotating.
2. Paralysis of extraocular muscles: when the buccal nerve, abducens nerve and motor nerve are damaged, or too much botulinum toxin is injected into the orbit, the extraocular muscles can be paralyzed, resulting in the appearance of the eyeballs not rotating.
3. Ocular trauma: When the orbital wall is fractured due to ocular trauma, the extraocular muscles can be embedded in the fracture, resulting in the inability to rotate the eyeball.
4. Orbital lesions: Hemorrhage or cellulitis in the orbit may cause damage or compression of the extraocular muscles and their innervating nerves, resulting in the inability to rotate the eyeball.
If the eyeball does not rotate, you should consult a doctor and take appropriate treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
