What is Ocular Tendonitis?  

Have you ever over-exercised?  

Played one too many sets of tennis?  

You probably noticed that your muscles get sore and achy. Like the arms and legs, the eye muscles can also get sore. 

The eye muscles are shown here attached to the globe near the middle of the eye and to the orbital bone in the back.              

When the eye muscles are overused and strained,  the tendons that attach the eye muscles to the eyeball can become inflamed. 

Inflamed eye tendons are described as ocular tendonitis.
