Pseudoesotropia is associated with: (A) Hypeelorism, (B) Negative angle kappa, (C) Positive angle kappa, (D) None of the above
Answer is B. PSEUDOSTRABISMUS In pseudostrabismus (apparent squint), the visual axes are in fact parallel, but the eyes seem to have a squint: 1. Pseudoesotropia or apparent convergent squint : It may be associated with a prominent epicanthal fold (which covers the normally visible nasal aspect of the globe and gives a false impression of esotropia) and negative angle kappa. 2. Pseudoexotropia or apparent divergent squint : It may be associated with hypeelorism, a condition of wide separation of the two eyes, and positive angle kappa. Ref:- A K KHURANA; pg num:-321
