Further, this group processed briefly presented visual stimuli significantly less effectively as compared to a group with verified normal vision. [oepf.org]
Symptoms of exophoria Exophoria typically presents in childhood or high school. The most common symptom is an outward eye turn that occurs when the eye is covered. [optometrists.org]
Nystagmus - fast, uncontrollable movements of the eyes, sometimes called "dancing eyes" Some eye movement disorders are present at birth. Others develop over time and may be associated with other problems, such as injuries. [icdlist.com]

History This usually presents as an acquired, intermittent esotropia. Parents often describe the eyes being straight at times; however will cross when the child is tired or focusing on something up-close. [eyewiki.aao.org]

In adults, especially those with hypertension or diabetes, vasculopathic ischemic infarction is a common cause of fourth-nerve paresis. Midbrain or cerebellum tumors, aneurysm and ischemia can also cause paresis, resulting in diplopia. [reviewofoptometry.com]

Two common ones are Strabismus - a disorder in which the two eyes don't line up in the same direction. This results in "crossed eyes" or "walleye." [icdlist.com]
Abstract Convergent strabismus is a common diagnosis in early childhood, when it is mostly considered benign. If it develops later in life, strabismus can, however, be a sign of neurological disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
I was reminded of this while reviewing a new paper from Brian Mohney and his pediatric ophthalmology/adult strabismus group at the Mayo Clinic on adult-onset CI. [visionhelp.wordpress.com]

[…] divergence, with sparing of fusional convergence, was subsequently corroborated. 4 A 2005 study, however, did not find a difference in fusional divergence among primary and secondary DI cases. 7 Similarly, A-pattern defects need to be considered in the workup [reviewofophthalmology.com]
Treatment
Exophoria treatment focuses on improving convergence to enable proper eye alignment. [optometrists.org]
There are new sections on feigned visual loss in adults and children, the management of residual defects and the section on botulinum toxin treatment in chapter 8 will be re-written to take account of the great advances in this form of treatment. [books.google.es]
So diagnosis and treatment must begin at once. What are the Treatments Options? The initial treatment for esophoria is prescription eyeglasses to address the commonly present farsightedness, or hyperopia. [blog.visionsource-plano.com]
Treatment options: Vision therapy is an effective treatment option. One example of vision therapy for exophoria is pencil pushups: Get a pencil and focus intently on the its tip bringing it back slowly towards your eyes until it touches your nose. [2020detroit.com]
Prognosis
I would suggest you go to University of Indiana, School of Optometry or the Vision Development Center in Jasper and they will be able to assess your binocular vision thoroughly and give you the proper diagnosis and prognosis. [healthboards.com]
Prognosis Studies have demonstrated binocularity of at least peripheral fusion in around 70% of patients with accommodative esotropia. [eyewiki.aao.org]
Etiology
Current techniques to control its progression target these etiologies. Methods of myopia control that have been explored include: vision and behavioral therapy, contact lenses, multifocal lenses, and pharmaceutical agents. [oepf.org]
Congenital cataract is the most frequent etiology of this type of amblyopia. Strictly speaking, this isn't a true form of amblyopia since it isn't of a functional nature but rather has a pathological and/or organic etiology. • Refractive amblyopias. [optometricmanagement.com]
Etiology Accommodative esotropia is caused by accommodative convergence associated with hyperopia. [eyewiki.aao.org]
Specifical risk factors, etiology, and potential remedial interventions deserve to be further investigated. [oatext.com]
When patients report diplopia, particularly if recent in onset, you must first rule out potentially life-threatening etiologies. [reviewofoptometry.com]
Epidemiology

Secondary Form The epidemiology of primary and secondary form appears similar, with highest incidence among adults, but pediatric cases are reported sporadically as well. [reviewofophthalmology.com]

Pathophysiology
In these cases the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are largely unknown. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology A patient with hyperopia must accommodate to clear a blurred image. Accommodation will stimulate convergence. If fusional divergence is insufficient to compensate for this, an esotropia will develop. [eyewiki.aao.org]
Prevention
A tendency for the eyes to turn inward, prevented by binocular vision. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
What Can I Do To Prevent Esotropia From Developing? Esotropia cannot be prevented, but complications resulting from it can be prevented if the problem is detected early and treated properly. [eyehealthweb.com]
This amount of esotropia prevents binocular visual development. Some suggest prism adaption with Fresnel prisms prior to surgery. [eyewiki.aao.org]
