Question: What’s the difference between a tropia and a phoria?
Answer: These are terms to describe when the eyes are not in alignment with each other. A tropia is always present, while phorias are there “some of the time,” such as when the patient is tired or when fusion is broken (you cover an eye and it starts to drift).
For example: You can have an exotropia or esotropia. You can also have an exophoria and esophoria.
