They may include, but are not limited to, diplopia (double vision), asthenopia (eye strain), transient blurred vision, difficulty sustaining near-visual function, abnormal fatigue, headache, and abnormal postural adaptation, among others.
DVD can be revealed on ocular movement testing when one eye is occluded by the nose on lateral gaze. This eye will then elevate, simulating an inferior oblique over action. However, in a unilateral case, overaction of the superior rectus muscle in the unaffected dominant eye, can also be a causing factor as well as causing a V pattern exophoria.
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 ...
Exophoria. Exophoria is a form of heterophoria in which there is a tendency of the eyes to deviate outward. [1] During examination, when the eyes are dissociated, the visual axes will appear to diverge away from one another. [2] The axis deviation in exophoria is usually mild compared with that of exotropia.
Helicobacter pylori is a class I carcinogen, and potential cancers include gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas and gastric cancer. [ 10 ][ 11 ][ 53 ] Less commonly, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the stomach is a risk. [ 54 ]
Treatment depends on the type of strabismus and the underlying cause. [3] This may include the use of glasses and possibly surgery. [3] Some types benefit from early surgery. [3] Strabismus occurs in about 2% of children. [3] The term comes from the Ancient Greek word στραβισμός (strabismós), meaning 'a squinting'. [6]
Many long-term complications have been described. Most of them are related to either an incorrect indication for surgery or technical errors.
