| Description | Induced Tropia Test. Using a 10-20 base-down prism, this exam demonstrates equal vision in both eyes. If there is evidence of ocular misalignment, prisms can be used to neutralize the movement and thereby measure the deviation, whether it is a heterotropia or heterophoria. Prisms are placed in front of either eye such that the apex of the prism is oriented in the direction of the deviation, and the prism strength is altered until the deviation is no longer observed.
