Monofixation syndrome, abbreviated MFS, is an eye condition defined by less than perfect binocular vision. It involves a small-angle deviation of one eye in which the deviated eye is suppressed while peripheral fusion between the two eyes is still present, meaning the condition allows peripheral fusion without true central fusion.
