This CME activity provides healthcare professionals with the latest updates and advancements in diagnosing and managing abducens nerve palsy. Abducens nerve palsy, characterized by lateral rectus muscle weakness and restricted eye abduction, poses significant challenges in patient care. Through this activity, participants will understand the etiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, and evidence-based management strategies for abducens nerve palsy. Key topics will include differentiating abducens nerve palsy from other causes of diplopia, interpreting neuroimaging findings, exploring nonsurgical and surgical treatment options, and addressing the importance of an interprofessional team approach in optimizing patient outcomes. By the end of this activity, participants will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively diagnose and manage patients with abducens nerve palsy, improving their clinical practice and patient care.
