It can happen as an adaptation to central vision loss or as part of certain childhood vision disorders. Clinicians discuss eccentric fixation in amblyopia and strabismus evaluations and in low-vision rehabilitation. It is described and measured during eye exams rather than being a single \u201ctreatment\u201d on its own."}
