Our ability to move the eyes is what helps us to be able to focus on words flowing across the page in a book, to see a basketball being passed across the court, or even detect how far away a bird may be flying in the sky. If our eye muscles can’t move correctly or smoothly, it can make it very difficult to perform basic daily tasks or even to feel safe in our environment.

Ocular Lock occurs when the cranial bones (and sometimes facial bones or other spinal segments) affect the ability of the eyes to track up/down/right/left/around, converge (move together), diverge (move apart), and hold their position.
