Congenital oculomotor nerve palsy is a rare condition that affects the third cranial nerve, which is responsible for controlling the movement of the eye muscles. It is a congenital disorder, meaning it is present at birth, and is caused by a malformation of the nerve. Symptoms of this condition include double vision, drooping eyelids, and difficulty moving the eyes in certain directions. Treatment typically involves corrective lenses, eye exercises, and surgery.

The most common symptoms of congenital oculomotor nerve palsy include:

• Ptosis (drooping of the eyelid)
• Strabismus (crossed eyes)
• Diplopia (double vision)
• Abnormal head posture
• Abnormal eye movements
• Reduced pupillary response
• Reduced eye movement in the affected eye
• Reduced vision in the affected eye

Congenital oculomotor nerve palsy is caused by a variety of factors, including genetic mutations, birth trauma, infections, and vascular malformations. It can also be caused by a tumor or aneurysm in the brain or skull, or by a stroke. In some cases, the cause is unknown.

1. Surgery: Surgery is the most common treatment for congenital oculomotor nerve palsy. The goal of surgery is to restore normal eye movement and alignment. Surgery may involve releasing the tight muscles around the eye, or repositioning the eye muscles.

2. Botulinum toxin injections: Botulinum toxin injections can be used to relax the muscles around the eye, allowing the eye to move more freely.

3. Eyeglasses: Eyeglasses can be used to correct any refractive errors that may be present.

4. Patching: Patching can be used to help the affected eye to move more freely.

5. Vision therapy: Vision therapy can be used to help the affected eye to move more freely and to improve vision.

6. Medication: Medication may be prescribed to help

1. Maternal diabetes
2. Maternal rubella infection
3. Maternal use of certain medications
4. Maternal alcohol or drug abuse
5. Maternal exposure to certain environmental toxins
6. Family history of oculomotor nerve palsy
7. Premature birth
8. Low birth weight
9. Birth trauma
10. Infections during pregnancy

There is no cure for congenital oculomotor nerve palsy, but there are medications that can help manage the symptoms. These medications include anticholinergics, which help reduce the amount of drooping of the eyelid, and botulinum toxin injections, which can help reduce the amount of double vision. Surgery may also be an option for some people with this condition.
