Duran's Reaction Syndrome?!
Question:
Duran's Reaction Syndrome?
Anyone ever hear of this? I was diagnosed when I was like 10 with this. Any info would help.
Answers:
What you have is mostly likely Duane's Retraction Syndrome. It is a condition that causes the eye to retract slightly in certain positions of gaze. It is more common in females and it is caused by miswiring of the medial and lateral rectus muscles (two of the six muscles that move the eyes). The exact etiology is unclear, however it is believed to be due to either genetic or environmental factors during embryonic development of the cranial nerves and eye muscles which takes place between weeks 3 to 8 of pregnancy.
Hope this helps.
