Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Right axis deviation is normally due to muscular weakness of the external ocular muscles. In some cases it is hereditary, may be acquired after birth, due to myaesthenia gravis, etc. Complete examination by an ophthalmologist will help in making out the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
