	==~~Overview~~==
	'''Corectopia''' is a hypothetical medical condition characterized by an abnormal alignment of the [[pupil]]s of the eyes. Unlike [[strabismus]], which involves the misalignment of the entire eye, corectopia specifically refers to the displacement of the pupil from its normal central position within the [[iris]]. This condition is often used in fictional contexts to explore themes of perception and vision.

'''Corectopia''' is a medical condition where the pupil of the eye is not in its normal, central position, but is displaced to one side. This can be due to a variety of causes, including congenital defects, trauma, or certain diseases.

==Causes==
Corectopia can be caused by a variety of factors. These include:

* '''[[Congenital defects]]''': Some people are born with corectopia. This can be due to genetic factors or problems during fetal development.
* '''[[Trauma]]''': Injury to the eye can cause the pupil to be displaced. This can be due to a direct blow to the eye, or due to surgery or other medical procedures.
* '''[[Diseases]]''': Certain diseases can cause corectopia. These include [[uveitis]], [[glaucoma]], and [[iridocyclitis]].

==Symptoms==
The main symptom of corectopia is a pupil that is not in its normal, central position. This can cause a variety of visual problems, including:

* '''[[Blurred vision]]''': Because the pupil is not in its normal position, light does not enter the eye in the usual way. This can cause blurred vision.
* '''[[Double vision]]''': In some cases, corectopia can cause double vision.
* '''[[Photophobia]]''': People with corectopia may be more sensitive to light than normal.

==Treatment==
Treatment for corectopia depends on the underlying cause. In some cases, no treatment is necessary. In other cases, treatment may include:

* '''[[Medication]]''': Certain medications can help to manage the symptoms of corectopia.
* '''[[Surgery]]''': In some cases, surgery may be necessary to correct the position of the pupil.
