Strabismus and Tropia are medical terms for
a vision condition that is called by various
different names. Other names include cross eyed,
crossed eye, cockeye, weak eye, wall eyed, wandering
eyes, deviating eye, squint, hererotropia and
others.Strabismus is a vision condition where
one’s eyes are not able to properly align
under normal conditions.One eye is misaligned
in relation to the other when focusing on an
object. Both eyes are not able to focus in the
same direction, at the same point, at the same
time. When a persons eyes appear to be
turned in (toward the nose), they are commonly
called cross-eyed. This is more formally termed
Esotropic Strabismus. When the eyes appear to
be turned outward (away from the nose), the
person is commonly called wall eyed.
