      • Deviation:
      • Non-Paralytic: Constant, equal

    • How does paralytic esotropia differ from non-paralytic esotropia?

    • What is the name of the condition shown in the fourth image?
      Hypertropia
    • What is the origin of the consecutive group of non-paralytic esotropia?
      Develops after refractive correction
    • What is a characteristic of the residual group of non-paralytic esotropia?
      Remains after surgical correction
    • How does non-paralytic squint typically develop?
      Usually develops gradually
    • What is the name of the condition where the eyes turn upward?
      Hypertropia
    • What is the name of the condition shown in the first image?
      Esotropia
    • What is the name of the condition where the eyes turn downward?
      Hypotropia
    • How does the deviation in non-paralytic squint behave?
      Consistent in all gaze directions
    • What is a key characteristic of non-paralytic squint?
      No double vision
    • What does the secondary (sensory) group of non-paralytic esotropia result from?
      Vision loss in one eye
    • What are the differences between paralytic and non-paralytic squint?
      • Paralytic squint has restricted deviation in the direction of action of the paralyzed muscles, while non-paralytic squint has equal or constant deviation in all directions of gaze.
      • Paralytic squint has diplopia (double vision), while non-paralytic squint does not.
      • Paralytic squint usually has a sudden onset, while non-paralytic squint has a usually gradual onset.
      • Paralytic squint has a compensatory head posture, while non-paralytic squint does not.
    • What is the onset of a non-paralytic squint?
      Usually gradual
    • How does consecutive non-paralytic esotropia develop?
      It develops after refractive correction or surgery
    • What characterizes the primary group of non-paralytic esotropia?
      Present from birth with constant inward deviation
    • How could a healthcare provider use the information in this image to diagnose and treat different types of strabismus?
      • Identify the specific type of strabismus based on eye position
      • Determine appropriate treatment options like vision therapy, prisms, or surgery
      • Monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed
    • What is the deviation of a non-paralytic squint?
      Equal or constant in all directions of gaze
    • What is the name of the false image shown in the image?
      False image
