Most esotropias are concomitant and begin early in childhood, typically
Comitant strabismus etiology: extraocular muscle integrity and …
The idea that concomitant, non-paralytic, developmental strabismus are caused by deficits in the central nervous system is supported by different arguments. The minor abnormalities found in the EOMs (periphery) in these types of strabismus might be a consequence of altered function rather than the cause of the deviation.
