l think it is called a wAndering eye. + You *can* develop one ( l do not think it is that common) because if you have a weaker eye, it can get weaker and weaker. That is why some treatment is just to cover the good eye so that the weak one can strengthen up, and then no lazy eye.

The turning of an eye at birth or very young usually have more severe of a muscle difference. ie; one muscle very tight/ one very loose. At maturity if there is a slight discrepancy in the eye muscles, fatigue can cause it to weaken and the eye may turn but will usually stay straight.

the eye is not in problem it is cortex of the brain in problem due genetically based condition--also found in those, who suffer from this complaints,including in those who have close relative marriage. manifestations commence in early life or birth---please read ---billdoll.com/ref/ideas/health/lazy/1/le/le-html

A lot of people with a wandering eye (exotropia) are born with it but can control it to varying degrees. Occasionally adults who lose significant vision in one eye may develop it. There are other significant medical problems in adulthood that may cause an adult to have an exotropia like stroke and brain tumors.
