In binocular vision terminology, CI stands for convergence insufficiency.

• A. Color interpretation
• B. Convergence insufficiency
• C. Central iris
• D. Corneal inertia

Answer: (B)

CI stands for convergence insufficiency, a condition where the eyes don’t converge inward adequately when focusing on near objects. With near tasks, the vergence system should produce strong inward eye movements to keep both eyes aligned on the target; when this convergence is insufficient, vision becomes misaligned, leading to symptoms like eye strain, headaches, blurred or double vision, especially during reading or other close work. The other terms don’t fit this context: color interpretation is unrelated to binocular convergence, central iris refers to a part of the eye but not an abbreviation used in binocular vision, and corneal inertia is not a standard concept in this field.
