| strabismus |
Both eyes cannot be directed at the same object (binocular vision), because of an imbalance in one or more of the muscles that move the eyes. Double vision results and if left untreated the brain learns to ignore the vision from the weaker eye. Children with parts of there retina missing from Coloboma may have this conditon. Their brain is trying to find good retina material to focus an image on.
