Centronuclear myopat: Muscle weakness progressively worsens, and some people with this condition require wheelchair assistance in mid- to late adulthood. People with this condition may have weakness in the muscles that control eye movement (ophthalmoplegia) and droopy eyelids (ptosis). Rarely, affected individuals have disturbances in nerve function (neuropathy) or intellectual disability.
