Alternate cover

Mostly used for patients with strabismus and intermittent strabismus. If the non-covering eye moves from the outside to the inside, it means that the patient has exotropia; if it moves from the inside to the outside, it shows that there is an inside strabismus; if there is a vertical movement, it means that there is a vertical strabismus, that is, upside or downside.
