المستخلص: Background: Binocular anomalies are one of the major causes of headache and other annoying symptoms, manifest strabismus not only caused cosmetic problem but also induced amblyopia and other sensory problems. Non strabismic anomalies can develop to strabismus if untreated so determining prevalence of different binocular anomalies and related features is important (1). Aim: To assess clinical features of patients attended the orthoptic clinic of Al-neelain university eye hospital. Material and Methods: A retrospective hospital based study was conducted in the orthoptic clinic of Al-Neelain university eye hospital in the period from October 2018 to June 2019. (304) patient’s records were included in this study, both genders were considered. Required information included age, gender, visual acuity, type and amount of refractive errors, type and amount of deviation and assessment of binocular functions, this information obtained from files of patients and was recorded in the research form. Results: The findings revealed vast majority 70.7% of patients were females, the age group most represented were teenagers with 46.4%. Headache during reading was the most common ocular complaint found in 45.2% of patients, followed by ocular pain during concentration 23.7%. The more prevalent binocular vision anomalies was convergence weakness exophoria 45.4%, convergence insufficiency 20.4% and esotropia 12.5%. The majority of patients 98.4% had abnormal convergent fusional vergence at near with mean of 13.4 ± 5.75 Δ base-out, while 80.8% had abnormal divergent fusional vergence at near with mean of 7.21 ± 3.29 Δ base-in. About 27.69% of patients have abnormal near point of convergence; more than 10 cm with mean of 9.13 ± 3.63 cm. Conclusion: Binocular vision anomalies were common among females with convergence weakness exophoria and convergence insufficiency being the predominant anomaly. Headache was common prevalent among patient with binocular vison problem. Therefore, efforts should be made for early detection and treatment of binocular anomalies to avoid their impact on quality of life and productivity.
