Does Constantly Crossing Your Eyes Really Make Them Crossed Forever?
..................................................................................................... You might fear to cross your eyes because you were told as a child that crossing them may get them stuck in that position forever, and nobody likes to have crossed eyes on purpose. However, is it really possible for your eyes to remain crossed after playing around with them to make funny faces? The answer lies below Eye Movement : Our eyes are designed to move in all directions. Sometimes we stare at a specific point like at the right of our eyes, and we even cross our eyes when trying to focus our look on something, but our eyes will not get stuck at any point unless we were born with an ocular condition known as esotropia. Esotropia : Esotropia is a permanent crossed eyed condition that comes due to lack of muscle coordination in the eyes and lesions in the cranial nerves. This condition does not just happen because you forced your eyes to cross; it is a condition that happens to individuals who were born with it from the first place.
