Monocular Elevation Deficit (MED)—also called “double elevator palsy”—is when one eye cannot look up as it should. The problem looks the same whether that eye is turned in (toward the nose) or out (toward the ear): elevation is limited in all horizontal positions. Because that eye sits lower, people often notice a vertical misalignment (the affected eye looks “down”), double vision, and sometimes a droopy-looking eyelid (true ptosis or “pseudo-ptosis” because the eye is lower). MED can be present at birth (congenital) or acquired later. EyeWiki+1aapos.org
Looking up requires a team effort from two “elevator” muscles of the eye—the superior rectus (SR) and inferior oblique (IO)—and any problem that weakens those elevators or tethers the eye downward (most commonly a tight inferior rectus (IR)) can produce MED. EyeWikiPMC
Types of MED
1) Restrictive MED (tethered upgaze)
What’s going on: The inferior rectus is tight or fibrotic, physically restricting upward rotation (like a stiff leash).
Clues in the exam: Forced duction test (FDT) is positive (eye won’t rotate upward when the examiner gently moves it), force generation and saccadic speed are often normal, Bell’s phenomenon (automatic upward roll on forced eye closure) may be poor or absent.
Typical causes: Thyroid eye disease (most often tight IR), scarring after trauma or surgery, orbital myositis. PMCamj.journals.ekb.egEyeWikiNCBI
2) Paretic (neurogenic) MED (weak elevators)
What’s going on: Weak SR and/or IO from faulty nerve supply (e.g., superior division of CN III palsy) or muscle under-action.
Clues in the exam: FDT is free (no tether), but force generation and saccadic velocity in elevation are reduced; Bell’s phenomenon often preserved.
Typical causes: Superior division third-nerve palsy (microvascular, compressive, inflammatory), congenital SR palsy. PMCamj.journals.ekb.egMedscape
3) Supranuclear MED (brain control problem)
What’s going on: The brain’s vertical gaze centers (e.g., riMLF/posterior commissure) that coordinate upgaze don’t work properly; both elevators of one eye can function poorly even if nerves/muscles are intact.
Clues in the exam: Features of supranuclear vertical gaze palsy; imaging may show midbrain/thalamic lesions.
Typical causes: Stroke, tumors, demyelination, neurodegenerative disease; rarely can appear monocular. PMCEyeWikiEnto Key
4) Combined MED (both weakness and tether)
What’s going on: A mix—some elevator weakness plus IR restriction.
Clues in the exam: Positive FDT and reduced force generation/slow elevation saccades. PMC
These four patterns are clinically useful because tests (like FDT/FGT) and imaging help your doctor decide which mechanism is dominant—this directly guides management if treatment is needed. EyeWiki

Diagnostic tests
Your doctor chooses from these to confirm MED, find the cause (weakness vs tether vs brain control), and measure how much misalignment you have.
A) Physical-exam/sensorimotor tests
Visual acuity & refraction: Check eyesight and glasses prescription; poor focus can mimic symptoms.
Cover–uncover test: Briefly covers one eye and looks for a “jump” when uncovering—reveals hidden misalignment.
Alternate cover test with prisms: Switches the cover and uses prisms to measure the vertical deviation in prism diopters.
Hirschberg/Krimsky (for children): Uses corneal light reflex (and prisms if needed) to estimate vertical misalignment when formal testing is hard.
Versions and ductions: Systematic check of eye movements in nine gaze positions; elevation is graded (−1 to −4). BioMed Central
Hess chart: You wear red–green glasses and plot where the eye points; draws a map of which muscles under- or over-act. EyeWiki
Lancaster red–green test: Similar red–green setup to chart misalignment across gaze fields; helpful to separate weakness from restriction. PMC
B) Manual/bedside tests
Forced duction test (FDT): After numbing drops, the examiner gently moves the eye with forceps; if it won’t move up, a tether is present (restrictive MED). EyeWiki
Force-generation test (FGT): You try to look up while the examiner resists; weak effort suggests paretic MED. EyeWiki

Non-pharmacological treatments
These approaches support comfort, safety, and visual function. Some are stand-alone in mild cases; many are bridges before or after surgery.
Observation with scheduled follow-up
Purpose: watch a mild, stable case without rushing into procedures.
Mechanism: avoids overtreatment while tracking changes that might suggest restriction or weakness progressing.Education and posture coaching
Purpose: reduce strain and neck pain from constant chin-up posture.
Mechanism: ergonomic tips (raise screens, adjust car mirrors, hold books higher) decrease the need to look up with the eyes.Optical prisms in glasses
Purpose: lessen double vision in the up-gaze range you use most.
Mechanism: prisms bend light to meet the misaligned eye where it is, improving single vision without changing the eye muscles.Bangerter filters or partial occlusion (for diplopia control)
Purpose: reduce disturbing double vision when prisms are insufficient.
Mechanism: a mild blur film on one lens suppresses the second image while keeping some vision.Full occlusion (patching) in children at risk of amblyopia
Purpose: keep the weaker eye engaged so it develops normally.
Mechanism: alternating patching forces the brain to use the eye that’s being ignored.Vision therapy / orthoptic exercises (selected cases)
Purpose: improve fusion and binocular coordination around primary gaze.
Mechanism: repetitive tasks train the brain’s vergence control; they do not fix a tight muscle, but can widen the range of comfortable single vision.Head-position training
Purpose: find the least symptomatic gaze for reading, computer work, or playing.
Mechanism: compensatory head tilt or chin position can move your working tasks into your single-vision zone.Workstation ergonomics
Purpose: reduce symptom triggers at work/school.
Mechanism: raising monitors, using document stands, and proper chair height minimize up-gaze demand.Sports and daily activity modification
Purpose: prevent falls or collisions when up-gaze is needed.
Mechanism: stair rails, brighter lighting, and scanning with head movement rather than eye elevation.Lubrication and blink routines
Purpose: ease burning and eye fatigue that worsen with compensatory staring.
Mechanism: artificial tears and timed blinks stabilize the tear film.Cold/warm compresses for eye comfort
Purpose: reduce lid/eye discomfort after long use or after procedures.
Mechanism: heat loosens lid oil secretions; cold calms surface irritation.Treat underlying thyroid eye disease non-surgically (lifestyle)
Purpose: for MED patterns from thyroid-related inferior rectus fibrosis, slow the driver.
Mechanism: smoking cessation, selenium-replete diet, and achieving euthyroid status reduce inflammatory activity.Protective eyewear
Purpose: prevent trauma that can worsen restriction or cause new scarring.
Mechanism: shatter-resistant lenses shield the orbit.Pediatric visual development program
Purpose: ensure normal visual milestones in children with MED.
Mechanism: structured follow-up for fixation, tracking, depth perception, and timely amblyopia therapy.Temporary Fresnel prism trials
Purpose: “test-drive” prism power before making permanent lenses.
Mechanism: thin stick-on prisms allow quick adjustments as alignment changes.Post-op rehabilitation after strabismus surgery
Purpose: protect the result and speed recovery.
Mechanism: eye rest, cold compresses, prescribed movements, and drop schedules reduce inflammation and scarring.Driving and safety counseling
Purpose: keep you and others safe if up-gaze diplopia is prominent.
Mechanism: route planning, mirror re-positioning, and avoiding high-demand night driving.Medical alert information (if neurologic cause suspected)
Purpose: inform providers if a broader brain/nerve disease exists.
Mechanism: faster care if other neuro-ophthalmic symptoms occur.Psychological support if self-image is affected
Purpose: address social anxiety from visible misalignment.
Mechanism: counseling and support groups reduce stress and improve adherence to care.Weight management and anti-inflammatory lifestyle
Purpose: indirectly support eye health and reduce systemic risks (thyroid, diabetes).
Mechanism: sleep, exercise, and diet calm systemic inflammation that can worsen orbital disease.
Drug treatments
Medicines do not “stretch” a tight muscle, but they treat underlying drivers, calm inflammation, relieve diplopia temporarily, or prepare you for surgery. Doses below are typical adult ranges—your clinician will personalize them. Pediatric dosing and comorbidities can be very different.
OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botulinum toxin A) – chemodenervation
Dose/Timing: often 2.5–5 units injected into the inferior rectus (sometimes repeated).
Purpose: weaken an over-tight inferior rectus to allow more up-gaze or to fine-tune after surgery.

Purpose: achieve euthyroid state in Graves’ disease to control the orbital disease driver.
Mechanism: blocks thyroid hormone synthesis.
Side effects: rash, liver enzyme elevation, rare agranulocytosis.Antibiotics/antivirals (cause-specific)
Dose: tailored (e.g., IV broad-spectrum for orbital cellulitis; acyclovir/valacyclovir for herpetic neuritis).
Purpose: treat infectious causes of muscle scarring or nerve dysfunction.
Mechanism: pathogen-targeted.
Side effects: drug-specific (renal, GI, allergy).Temporary topical anesthetic/NSAID combo for post-procedure comfort
Dose: short, clinician-directed use only.
Purpose: relieve discomfort after injections or surgery (not a MED treatment per se).
Mechanism: surface numbing and anti-inflammatory effects.
Side effects: corneal toxicity if misused—avoid self-use.
Note: If the presentation is actually myasthenia gravis (a mimic), treatment changes (pyridostigmine, steroids, IVIG). Your specialist will rule this in or out.
Dietary, molecular, and supportive supplements
Supplements do not correct muscle tightness or nerve palsy, but they can support overall eye and nerve health. Always check interactions (e.g., with blood thinners, diabetes meds, or pregnancy).
Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) – 1000–2000 mg/day combined
Function: anti-inflammatory; improves tear film.
Mechanism: shifts eicosanoid balance away from pro-inflammatory mediators.Lutein (10 mg) + Zeaxanthin (2 mg) daily

Mechanism: membrane stabilization and neuromodulation.
Regenerative” medicines
There are no approved stem-cell drugs that repair eye muscles or nerves in MED. Beware of clinics advertising “stem-cell cures” for strabismus—these are unproven and risky. The items below are immune-modulating options used by specialists only when MED is driven by autoimmune inflammation (e.g., active thyroid eye disease or myositis). Many are off-label for strabismus and require careful risk–benefit discussion.
High-dose IV methylprednisolone – rapid immune down-regulation for acute flares (see dose above).
Mechanism: broad cytokine suppression.Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) – 2 g/kg over 2–5 days in selected autoimmune neuropathies/orbitopathies.
Mechanism: Fc-receptor blockade, neutralizes autoantibodies; not a routine MED therapy.Plasma exchange (PLEX) – a procedure, not a drug, but sometimes paired with IVIG in severe autoimmune neuro-ophthalmic disease.
Mechanism: removes circulating autoantibodies/cytokines.Rituximab – B-cell depletion for refractory autoimmune orbital disease.
Mechanism: anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody.Teprotumumab – targeted IGF-1R inhibitor for active TED altering muscle/fibroblast biology.
Mechanism: reduces orbital fibroblast activity and edema.Mycophenolate / Azathioprine – longer-term immune control when repeated steroids are undesirable.
Mechanism: reduces lymphocyte proliferation.
Bottom line: these do not directly “fix” elevation. They create a calmer biologic environment so surgery or botulinum can work better when inflammation is the driver.
Surgeries
Surgery is the definitive treatment when a tight muscle or persistent weakness causes misalignment. Choice depends on forced-duction testing and measurements.
Inferior Rectus Recession (IRc)
Procedure: the tight inferior rectus is moved back (weakened) on the eye to release its downward pull.
Why: best when elevation is blocked by restriction (e.g., scarring or thyroid fibrosis). It frees the eye to look up.Knapp Procedure (Full-tendon transposition)
Procedure: the medial and lateral rectus (horizontal muscles) are moved upward and attached near the superior rectus insertion.
Why: augments elevation when the superior rectus is weak without significant restriction.Modified Knapp with Inferior Rectus Recession
Procedure: combines IR recession (to release tightness) with upward transposition of horizontal muscles.
Why: used when there is both weakness and some restriction.Superior Rectus Resection (SRr)
Procedure: a segment of the superior rectus is shortened to strengthen its pull.
Why: for true superior rectus palsy with no opposing tightness.Vertical Rectus Transposition (Jensen/Hummelsheim variants ± posterior fixation sutures)
Procedure: portions of vertical muscles are shifted or “hitched” to change their vector; sometimes posterior fixation (Faden) sutures refine action in up-gaze.
Why: when complex patterns need vector re-balancing or if Knapp alone is insufficient.
Surgeons may also use adjustable sutures so alignment can be fine-tuned after you wake up.
Prevention and risk-reduction tips
Manage thyroid disease early to reduce risk of inferior rectus fibrosis.
Stop smoking—it strongly worsens thyroid eye disease activity.
Protect your eyes from trauma (sports eyewear).
Control diabetes, blood pressure, and cholesterol to reduce nerve ischemia risks.
Treat sinus and orbital infections promptly.
Use safe practices with contact lenses and cosmetics to avoid surface inflammation.
Maintain good sleep and stress control, which influence immune balance.
Keep regular eye exams, especially for kids—early amblyopia prevention matters.
Ergonomics at work to limit constant up-gaze demand.
Avoid unproven “stem-cell” or injection offers outside reputable trials.
When to see a doctor—do not wait if:
You develop sudden double vision, new eyelid droop, eye pain, or bulging of one eye.
A child tilts the head persistently or closes one eye in bright light.
You notice rapid changes in alignment, color vision loss, or weakness/numbness elsewhere (possible neurologic issue).
You have active thyroid disease with new eye symptoms.
What to eat and what to avoid
Eat: colorful vegetables and fruits daily (antioxidants support ocular tissues).
Eat: omega-3 rich foods (fatty fish, flax, walnuts) to calm systemic inflammation.
Eat: adequate protein (muscle repair and recovery after surgery).
Eat: selenium sources (Brazil nuts—small amounts; fish) if your diet lacks selenium.
Eat: probiotic-friendly foods (yogurt, kefir, fermented veggies) for gut-immune tone.
Avoid: smoking and limit alcohol, both worsen inflammation and healing.
Avoid: ultra-processed, high-sugar foods that promote systemic inflammation.
Avoid: excessive salt if you have thyroid eye disease with orbital swelling.
Avoid: megadoses of supplements without labs or medical advice.
Hydrate well to support tear film and post-op recovery.
FAQs
Is MED the same as “double elevator palsy”?
Yes. The older name stuck because two “elevator” muscles are involved; modern care focuses on whether the problem is tightness or weakness.Can exercises fix MED?
Exercises can improve comfort and fusion, but they cannot loosen a tight inferior rectus or fully correct true muscle palsy.Will glasses alone correct it?
Regular lenses won’t realign the eye. Prisms can reduce double vision in certain gazes.Do I always need surgery?
Not always. Some people do well with prisms, botulinum toxin, or simple coping strategies, but surgery is the definitive fix for restriction or large misalignment.What decides the surgical plan?
The forced-duction test, alignment measurements in different gazes, and whether there’s active inflammation (like thyroid eye disease).Is botulinum toxin permanent?
No. It lasts weeks to a few months. It’s useful as a test, a bridge, or a fine-tune after surgery.Could this be myasthenia gravis?
MG can mimic MED. Doctors will test if needed; treatment is totally different.Will MED harm my eye long-term?
The eye itself is usually healthy. The main risks are double vision, neck strain, and in kids, amblyopia if untreated.How successful is surgery?
Most patients get much better alignment and function. Sometimes a second surgery or prism is needed for fine tuning.How long is recovery?
Soreness and redness improve over 1–2 weeks; alignment stabilizes over 6–12 weeks.Can diet cure MED?
No diet cures a mechanical or nerve problem. Diet helps your overall health and healing.Are stem-cell treatments available?
No approved stem-cell therapies exist for MED. Avoid clinics offering these outside trials.Will this affect driving?
If you have double vision in common driving gazes, you may need prisms, head-position strategies, or to limit driving until corrected.Can kids outgrow MED?
Congenital MED doesn’t “self-correct,” but early amblyopia care and surgery can deliver excellent function.What specialist should I see?
An ophthalmologist who focuses on strabismus or a neuro-ophthalmologist if a nerve/brain cause is suspected.
