Sample question 1

Which cranial nerve innervates the superior oblique muscle?

  • AFacial nerve (CN VII)
  • Trochlear nerve (CN IV)
  • COculomotor nerve (CN III)
  • DAbducens nerve (CN VI)

Explanation

The superior oblique is innervated by the trochlear nerve, which is cranial nerve IV. It is the only extraocular muscle supplied by CN IV and is part of the classic LR6, SO4, all others III pattern.

Sample question 2

Esotropia refers to:

  • AAn upward deviation of an eye
  • An inward deviation of an eye
  • CAn outward deviation of an eye
  • DA torsional deviation only

Explanation

Esotropia is a manifest inward deviation of one eye relative to the other. It is one of the basic horizontal strabismus patterns recognized on primary examination.

Sample question 3

The Hirschberg test evaluates ocular alignment by observing the:

  • AOptic disc color
  • BLens opacity
  • Corneal light reflex
  • DRed reflex

Explanation

The Hirschberg test estimates ocular alignment by assessing the position of the corneal light reflex in each eye. It is a simple screening method that is especially useful in children and uncooperative patients.
