Question

Esotropiais usually associated with:

• A. Myopia
• B. Hypermetropia
• C. Astigmatism
• D. Presbyopia

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Esotropia is an inward turning of one or both eyes. It is often associated with hypermetropia, or farsightedness. In individuals with hypermetropia, the eyes need to exert extra focus to see close objects clearly. This increased focus effort can sometimes lead to a convergence of the eyes, resulting in esotropia.

Hypermetropia requires the eyes to converge more to maintain clear vision, which can exacerbate esotropia. Therefore, the correct association between esotropia and vision condition is with hypermetropia.

Condition	Associated with Esotropia
Myopia	No
Hypermetropia	Yes
Astigmatism	No
Presbyopia	No
