Diplopia Crossed

Diplopia in medicine is a condition characterized by double vision, which occurs due to a disorder of the extraocular muscles. The pathology can manifest itself when either one or both eyes are double, or it can be cross, when there is double vision of objects through one eye. Diplopia can cause psychological discomfort and lead to impaired vision. Diagnosis is based on a detailed description of the patient’s complaints and a number of diagnostic tests. Treatment uses conservative therapy, including bite correction, surgical treatment of cataracts, prevention of recurrent hemorrhage, prescription of medications and physical therapy.



Crossed diplopia (d.cruciata) is a clinical sign that occurs as a result of impaired functioning of the extraocular muscles that are responsible for eye movement. It is characterized by the appearance of distortions in the image, especially at a great distance. Causes of D.P. can be varied and include myopia, cataracts, peripheral retina, glaucoma, etc. D. P. can also occur after eye injury or surgical interventions. Treatment of crossed diplopia consists of drug therapy and the use of various correction methods. In some cases, surgery may be required. To accurately determine the cause of diplopia, its type and treatment, you should consult an ophthalmologist.



In ophthalmology there is such a concept - diplopia. It is commonly understood as the state of a person when the image he sees with both eyes shifts to one side. Most often, the cause lies in the eye muscles, but there may be other factors. Diplopia is also called “improper eye alignment.”

With the advent of high-precision optical systems, a feeling of ghosting often occurs when you look at various objects in front of you. This is due to the splitting of their images, since we are looking at the same object, but from different angles. Nowadays, various companies are creating 3D glasses for TV to create full 3D effects. Sometimes, after watching such films for a long time, it begins to seem that the image in the eyes is moving; this may occur due to constant overstrain of the eye muscles. True, over time the brain adapts to this sensation, and it ceases to occur.

Another type of diplopia is diplopia due to strabismus. The child has
