DEFINITION: A sensorimotor anomaly of the binocular vision system in which the foveal line of sight of either eye occasionally deviates outward and fails to intersect the object of fixation.
ICD-10 Code for Monocular exotropia, right eye- H50. 111- Codify by AAPC.
Exotropia—or an outward turning of the eyes—is a common type of strabismus accounting for up to 25 percent of all ocular misalignment in early childhood. Transient intermittent exotropia is sometimes seen in the first 4 - 6 weeks of life and, if mild, can resolve spontaneously by 6 - 8 weeks of age.
Causes of exotropia Exotropia occurs when there's an imbalance in eye muscles or when there's a signaling issue between the brain and eye. Sometimes a health condition, like cataracts or stroke, can cause this to occur. The condition may also be inherited.
Esotropia and exotropia are types of strabismus, which is a condition in which the eyes are not properly aligned. Esotropia means that one eye is deviated inward and is often called crossed eyes. Exotropia is when one or both eyes look outward, often called wall-eyed.

ICD-10-CM Code for Exophoria H50. 52.
Stereopsis (from Ancient Greek: στερεο-, romanized: stereo-, lit. 'solid', and ὄψις, opsis, 'appearance, sight') is the perception of depth and three-dimensional structure through binocular vision, the combined visual information from two eyes.
Exophoria- the outward eye misalignment is only temporary and occurs when the child is tired or stressed, or during close vision tasks when the eyes are unable to move across the line of text smoothly due to eye teaming difficulties. Exotropia- the outward eye movement is more frequent and noticeable.
You may see double, or have to close or cover an eye to focus. Intermittent esotropia. When the eyes are unable to work together, it's called intermittent esotropia. Your eyes may focus past the object you're trying to see. Symptoms include headaches, eye strain, and difficulty reading.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO OUTGROW INTERMITTENT EXOTROPIA? While it is possible for exotropia to become less frequent with age, most forms of exotropia do not resolve completely. However, some people may be able to adequately control the drifting with glasses or other non-surgical means.
Part time patching of the non-deviating eye may convert an intermittent exotropia to a phoria by treating suppression and amblyopia. Although the benefit may be temporary, occlusion can be used to postpone surgical intervention in responsive patients.
The service-connected post-operative congenital alternating strabismus (also called exotropia) is currently rated as 30 percent disabling under 38 C.F.R. § 4.84, Diagnostic Code 6090 for diplopia.
Prevalence - Exodeviations are much more common in latent or intermittent form than are esodeviations. Of all the exotropia intermittent exotropia comprises about 50-90% of the cases and is usually preceded by a stage of exophoria (4,5). It usually affects about 1% of the general population.
