The prevalence of tropia, phoria and their types in a student population in Iran.

Conclusion: The prevalence of strabismus in university students was similar to the Iranian general population but lower than other countries. One in every 10 students had phoria, which was much lower than similar reports on Iranian populations; however, due to near-work activity, these students are prone to asthenopia, early visual fatigue, and decreased productivity. Therefore, it is suggested that university students also undergo screening programs to detect the cases of tropia and phoria. PMID: 31868064 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
