Esotropia is which of the following?

• A. A Condition Where Eyes Turn Outward.
• B. Form of Strabismus. One Or Both Eyes Turn Inward.
• C. A Blurry Vision Due to Cataracts.
• D. Loss of Peripheral Vision Due to Glaucoma.

Answer: (B)

Esotropia is a misalignment of the eyes where one or both eyes turn inward toward the nose. This inward deviation is what defines esotropia and places it in the category of strabismus, which is any misalignment of the eyes. It’s different from outward turning (exotropia), which would be described by a different term. The other options refer to conditions that affect vision in other ways—cataracts blur vision because of lens clouding, and glaucoma typically causes loss of peripheral vision due to optic nerve damage—not eye misalignment.
