*Involves only extraocular muscles except for retractor blbi
 
*Grossly:
 
**Swollen and pale extraocular muscles
 
*Histologically:
 
**Sterile myositis

*Usually noticed at slaughter - green muscle discoloration
 
*May be caused by degenteration of [[Sarcocystis|''Sarcocystis'' spp.]]
 
*Grossly:
 
**Green discolored areas, well demarcated
 
**Mostly in muscles of back and thighs
 
*Histologically:
 
**Massive eosinophil infiltration
 
**Muscle fibres may degenerate
