    This document classifies strabismic and nonstrabismic binocular vision disorders in tables. Strabismic disorders are classified based on direction of eye turn (esotropia, exotropia, hypertropia), frequency (intermittent or constant), and laterality (right, left, alternating). Nonstrabismic disorders are classified based on tendency of eye turn (esophoria, exotropia, hyperphoria) and relationship between magnitude at distance and near. The most common types of strabismus are esotropia, exotropia, and hypertropia, which can occur in combinations and influence treatment prognosis.

    Classification of Strabismic Binocular Vision Disorders


    Direction
    • Esotropia: Eyes turn in
    • Exotropia: Eyes turn out
    • Hypertropia: One eye turns up
    Each of these conditions are also classified based on the following characteristics.
    Frequency
    • Intermittent esotropia or constant esotropia
    • Intermittent exotropia or constant exotropia
    • Intermittent hypertropia or constant hypertropia

    Laterality
    • Right esotropia, left esotropia, or alternating esotropia
    • Right exotropia, left exotropia, or alternating exotropia
    • Right hypertropia, left hypertropia, or alternating hypertropia

    Comitancy
    • Comitant or noncomitant esotropia
    • Comitant or noncomitant exotropia
    • Comitant or noncomitant hypertropia

    Table 4-4

    Classification of Nonstrabismic Binocular Vision Disorders


    Direction
    • Esophoria: Eyes have a tendency to turn in
    • Exophoria: Eyes have a tendency to turn out
    • Hyperphoria: One eye has a tendency to turn up
    • Nonstrabismic binocular vision disorders can also be classified based on the relationship between
    the magnitude of the phoria at distance and the magnitude of the phoria at near.

    Distance to Near Relationship


    • Magnitude equal at distance and near: Basic esophoria
    Basic exophoria
    • Magnitude greater at distance: Divergence excess (exophoria)
    Divergence insufficiency (esophoria)
    • Magnitude greater at near: Convergence insufficiency (exophoria)
    Convergence excess (esophoria)

    Direction
    The three most common types of strabismus are esotropia (eyes turn in), exotropia (eyes turn
    out), and hypertropia (one eye turns up). Combinations of these are possible and often occur. For
    example, the right eye could turn up and out or down and in. The direction of the strabismus has
    some significance in terms of prognosis for treatment using different treatment modalities. For
