  2. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    Inadequate diagnosis and treatment at improper times and tethering or fibrosis of muscles may lead to persistent diplopia. [16] Binocular diplopia is double vision arising as a result of strabismus [17] (in layman's terms "cross-eyed"), the misalignment of the two eyes relative to each other, either esotropia (inward) or exotropia (outward).

  3. Stereoblindness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoblindness

    Stereoblindness (also stereo blindness) is the inability to see in 3D using stereopsis, or stereo vision, resulting in an inability to perceive stereoscopic depth by combining and comparing images from the two eyes. Individuals with only one functioning eye have this condition by definition since the visual input of the second eye does not exist.

    The standard definition of normal visual acuity (20/20 or 6/6 vision) is the ability to resolve a spatial pattern separated by a visual angle of one minute of arc. The terms 20/20 and 6/6 are derived from standardized sized objects that can be seen by a "person of normal vision" at the specified distance.

    Common side effects are double vision, droopy eyelid, overcorrection, and no effect. The side effects typically resolve also within three to four months. Botulinum toxin therapy has been reported to be similarly successful as strabismus surgery for people with binocular vision and less successful than surgery for those who have no binocular vision.

    Other symptoms may include double vision, headaches, and eye strain. [3] Near-sightedness is due to the length of the eyeball being too long; far-sightedness the eyeball too short; astigmatism the cornea being the wrong shape, while presbyopia results from aging of the lens of the eye such that it cannot change shape sufficiently. [3]

  7. Polycoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycoria

    On diagnosis, signs lead to symptoms where there is more than one set of iris muscles, which controls the amount of light being brought into the eye. [10] When the iris becomes deformed, it will disarrange the control of light coming in leading to blurred vision and finding it hard to visually focus.

  8. Eye strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_strain

    Eye strain, also known as asthenopia (from astheno- 'loss of strength' and -opia 'relating to the eyes'), is a common eye condition that manifests through non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain in or around the eyes, blurred vision, headache, and occasional double vision. [1] Symptoms often occur after long-term use of computers, staring ...
