Abduction limitations that mimic VIth nerve palsy may result secondary to surgery, to trauma or as a result of other conditions such as myasthenia gravis or thyroid eye disease. In children, differential diagnosis is more difficult because of the problems inherent in getting infants to cooperate with a full eye movement investigation.
