Hypertropia

Hypertropia is a type of strabismus in which one eye looks higher than the other. Unlike exotropia, in which the eye looks outward, and endotropia, in which the eye looks inward, hypertropia is characterized by a vertical deviation of the eye.

Hypertropia can be the cause of various diseases, including eye muscle imbalance, nervous diseases, head injuries and other causes. Hypertropia is often combined with other types of strabismus, which complicates diagnosis and treatment.

To detect hypertropia, special tests are performed to determine the degree of deviation of the eye from its normal position. After this, the ophthalmologist may prescribe treatment, which may include wearing special glasses or lenses, surgery on the eye muscles, or complex therapy.

It is important to note that hypertropia can lead to serious consequences, including blurred vision, diplopia (double vision), and poor eye coordination. Therefore, if hypertropia is suspected, it is necessary to consult an ophthalmologist for diagnosis and treatment.

In conclusion, hypertropia is a serious eye disease that requires careful attention and timely treatment. Modern diagnostic and treatment methods make it possible to successfully cope with this problem and preserve vision for many years. If you suspect hypertropia or other eye diseases, do not delay visiting your doctor and take care of your health.



Hypertrophy is a simple way to detect abnormalities in cell culture. It consists of the following: A drop of a solution of the material being studied is applied to the surface of a microscope slide. The glass is placed under an electron microscope.

The electron diffraction pattern is recorded a short period of time after applying a drop to a glass slide. If a large number of cells are located in the same area, and the direction of the light rays is simultaneously close to the plane of the electron beam, then the electron density distribution shows a large content of organic material on the cell surface. During the study, it is necessary to ensure that the reflected rays are parallel and do not affect the path of the electron beam rays. The direction of the two light rays must be perpendicular to the plane of motion of the electron beam relative to the surface of the microscope field of view being examined.
