Diplopia in the aged: etiology and management. Abstract Text:
A description of diplopia, its causes, compensating mechanisms, and therapy is presented. Diplopia may be of benign origin, e.g., presbyopia or convergence insufficiency, but in the elderly it can be a warning of a severe local disorder or systemic disease. Early medical diagnosis should be a prime objective. Most of these disorders, if identified in time, can be cured or at least relieved by appropriate medical and surgical treatment.
