A 25-year-old male named Carlos went to the optometrist with the complaint of double vision (diplopia). The optometrist performed various eye tests on Carlos. Carlos was able to read an eye chart with each individual eye but experienced the double vision when he tried to use both eyes to focus. The optometrist noticed that when he had Carlos look laterally with each eye, Carlos's right eye did not move as far laterally as his left could. Based on these tests, the optometrist suspected that the muscle innervated by was not working properly.
