It's pretty much all there in the description.

Not found at Specsavers in my experience.

"Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria."

"Heterophoria is an eye condition in which the directions that the eyes are pointing at rest position, when not performing binocular fusion, are not the same as each other, or, "not straight". This condition can be esophoria, where the eyes tend to cross inward in the absence of fusion; exophoria, in which they diverge; or hyperphoria, in which one eye points up or down relative to the other."

Marty Feldman comes to mind :-)

There was a teacher when I was in high school who had this condition.

Naturally his nickname was Eisiah

What description? Anyway, anyone remember those heavy frames they used to put on your face with drop in lenses. I could never decide which was best, but then they did not know my retina was shot back then. Brian

I only need to think back to this morning whenI had an eye test for new glasses.

what caused your eye problems ?

Did staring at CRT tubes too closely have anything to do with it ?

I hate eye tests, my eyes are variable. Sometimes I can read the tiniest print on my small Iphone, sometimes I struggle even with reading glasses. The tests, just seem to take an instantaneous assessment.

It's a lion, in one frame/picture and a cage in the other. The idea was to adjust, until you saw the lion squarely in the cage.
