Abstract
Normal binocular vision requires that all involved structures; ocular, muscular, and neuronal; be intact and all of the intricate processes controlling conjugate gaze and cortical fusion be functioning. Diplopia may represent pathology at any point in this complex system. A careful history and physical examination may reveal a relatively benign etiology or may compel rapid diagnostic studies to evaluate the patient for neurological catastrophe.
