Why Do I Randomly Go Cross Eyed?

Strabismus can be caused by problems with the eye muscles, the nerves that transmit information to the muscles, or the control center in the brain that directs eye movements. It can also develop due to other general health conditions or eye injuries.

Why do I go cross eyed sometimes?

Crossed eyes occur either due to nerve damage or when the muscles around your eyes don't work together because some are weaker than others. When your brain receives a different visual message from each eye, it ignores the signals coming from your weaker eye.

Is it OK to go cross eyed sometimes?

While this may cause adults to worry, it won't cause any permanent damage. Crossing your eyes can cause muscle fatigue (much like when you exercise any other muscle), but it won't have any lasting effect.
