Brit.

/ˌs(j)uːdəʊˈfəʊvɪə/, U.S.

Etymology: < pseudo- comb. form + fovea n., probably after German Pseudofovea (1906 or earlier).

Ophthalmology.

An area of the retina (other than the true fovea centralis) that is used for fixating an image (in certain abnormal conditions).

1925 Amer. Jrnl. Psychol. 36 348 Patients suffering from hemianopsia tend to displace objects as wholes which may develop new centers of clearness varying with the size of the object (pseudofovea).

2004 F. Rowe Clin. Orthoptics (ed. 2) ii. 25 (caption) With abnormal retinal correspondence, there is sensory adaptation of the strabismic eye such that the pseudofovea and the fovea of the other eye become corresponding points.
