Abstract
A subset of patients with clinical lateral rectus palsy may have palsy limited to the superior compartment. Paralytic esotropia may be caused by lateral rectus superior compartment palsy despite an intact lateral rectus inferior compartment. This finding is consistent with evidence supporting independent innervation of the 2 lateral rectus neuromuscular compartments.
