This occurs when both eyes different degree of refractive Errors, with difference of up to 3:00D….
This condition is usually congenital. And it causes a sort varying retinal image sizes for both eyes and as a result the brain tend to suppress the weaker eye. Leading to amblyopia.
A rare type of anisometropia is antimetropia. Whereby one eye has myopia and the other has hyperopia.
This simply means the absence of crystalline lens of the eye,
Loss of crystalline lens can be as a result of surgery, cataract, penetrating injury or congenital.
People with APHAKIA find it difficult to focus on objects and they also experience very high degree of long sightedness and deep anterior chamber angle.
The crystalline is responsible for accomodations and it contribute to one third of the refractive power of the eye. So without this crystalline in place behind the iris, patients will find it difficult to focus on objects and will experience serious degree of far sightedness.
This is a disorder where by both eyes of an individual faces different positions of gaze.
This condition is also called crossed eyes, or squint.
