  2. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Esotropia is a form of strabismus in which one or both eyes turn inward. The condition can be constantly present, or occur intermittently, and can give the affected individual a "cross-eyed" appearance. [ 1] It is the opposite of exotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than esophoria. Esotropia is sometimes erroneously called ...

  3. Infantile esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantile_esotropia

    Infantile esotropia is an ocular condition of early onset in which one or either eye turns inward. It is a specific sub-type of esotropia and has been a subject of much debate amongst ophthalmologists with regard to its naming, diagnostic features, and treatment.

  4. Strabismus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus

    Frequency. ~2% (children) [ 3] Strabismus is a vision disorder in which the eyes do not properly align with each other when looking at an object. [ 2] The eye that is pointed at an object can alternate. [ 3] The condition may be present occasionally or constantly. [ 3] If present during a large part of childhood, it may result in amblyopia, or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exotropia

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomyopia

    Esotropia: Acute onset esotropia may occur in accommodative spasm, which is the common cause of pseudomyopia. [2] Diplopia: Diplopia may occur due to esotropia or convergence spasm; The diagnosis is done by cycloplegic refraction using a strong cycloplegic like atropine or homatropine eye drops. Accommodative amplitude and facility may be ...

  8. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    The link of this hypothetical concept with exponential growth is most vocally made by futurist Ray Kurzweil.) In computational complexity theory , computer algorithms of exponential complexity require an exponentially increasing amount of resources (e.g. time, computer memory) for only a constant increase in problem size.

  9. Heterophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterophoria

    Heterophoria is an eye condition in which the directions that the eyes are pointing at rest position, when not performing binocular fusion, are not the same as each other, or, "not straight". This condition can be esophoria, where the eyes tend to cross inward in the absence of fusion; exophoria, in which they diverge; or hyperphoria, in which ...
