Study Notes
Exodeviation Types
- Suppression Exodeviation: Occurs when the brain suppresses the input from one eye due to a significant difference in visual acuity between the eyes.
- Secondary Exodeviation: Develops as a secondary deviation following surgery or other treatments for strabismus.
- Constant Exodeviation: Consistently present, even when the person is focusing on an object.
- Intermittent Exodeviation: Characterized by the deviation occurring at times, often during fatigue or when the person is not focusing on a specific object.
- Constant Angle Exodeviation: Refers to outward eye deviations that remain relatively constant in magnitude regardless of the direction of gaze.
