Accommodative  Refractive (hypermetropia between +2 to +7 DS that presented between age of 18 months till 3 years which is treated by plus glasses) or non-refractive (high AC/A ratio which may.require bifocal glasses) : B. Non-accommodative Infantile  within 6 months, no refractive errors, large angle, alternating and no limitation of ocular.1 movement…treatment ideally surgical by age of 1 year(even though bifoveal fusion is not achieved).…(sometime may require further second session of surgical corrections).Microtropia.2.Convergence spasm.3.Sensory.4.Consecutive.5.6th cranial nerve palsy.6.Duane syndrome type 1.7.
