===Differential diagnosis=== [[Pseudostrabismus]] is the false appearance of strabismus. It generally occurs in infants and toddlers whose bridge of the nose is wide and flat, causing the appearance of esotropia due to less [[sclera]] being visible nasally. With age, the bridge of the child's nose narrows and the [[Epicanthic fold|folds in the corner of the eyes]] become less prominent. [[Retinoblastoma]] may also result in abnormal light reflection from the eye.[[File:US Navy 090707-F-7923S-026 Navy Capt.
