Monofixation syndrome ( MFS) (also: microtropia or microstrabismus) is an eye condition defined by less-than-perfect binocular vision. [1] It is defined by a small angle deviation with suppression of the deviated eye and the presence of binocular peripheral fusion. [2] That is, MFS implies peripheral fusion without central fusion.
Amblyopia, also called lazy eye, is a disorder of sight in which the brain fails to fully process input from one eye and over time favors the other eye. [ 1] It results in decreased vision in an eye that typically appears normal in other aspects. [ 1] Amblyopia is the most common cause of decreased vision in a single eye among children and ...
Amblyopia. Anisometropia is a condition in which a person's eyes have substantially differing refractive power. [ 1] Generally, a difference in power of one diopter (1D) is the threshold for diagnosis of the condition. [ 2][ 3] Patients may have up to 3D of anisometropia before the condition becomes clinically significant due to headache, eye ...
[9] [10] Amblyopia will be treated via occlusion treatment (using patching or atropine drops) of the non-squinting eye with the aim of achieving full alternation of fixation. Management thereafter will be surgical. As alternative to surgery, also botulinum toxin therapy has been used in children with infantile esotropia.
This condition is inherited via autosomal dominant manner. Macular hypoplasia (or foveal hypoplasia) is a rare medical condition involving the underdevelopment of the macula, [ 1] a small area on the retina (the eye's internal surface) responsible for seeing in detail and sensing light. [ 2] Macular hypoplasia is often associated with albinism.
Specialty. Ophthalmology. Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward. It is the opposite of esotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than exophoria. People with exotropia often experience crossed diplopia. Intermittent exotropia is a fairly common condition. "Sensory exotropia" occurs in the presence ...
These include: · Feeling guilty of things that are not one’s fault. · Change of appetite that results in weight loss or weight gain. · Loss of interest in activities that you used to enjoy ...
Psychiatry. Mental disorders diagnosed in childhood can be neurodevelopmental, emotional, or behavioral disorders. These disorders negatively impact the mental and social wellbeing of a child, and children with these disorders require support from their families and schools. Childhood mental disorders often persist into adulthood.
