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.
