Exophoria information


Exophoria
SpecialtyOphthalmology

Exophoria is a form of heterophoria in which there is a tendency of the eyes to deviate outward.[1] During examination, when the eyes are dissociated, the visual axes will appear to diverge away from one another.[2]

The axis deviation in exophoria is usually mild compared with that of exotropia.
