Answer to Question 1

Ans:
D

Feedback:

Strabismus is ideally treated by surgery rather than with glasses in the case of infants. The condition will not resolve independently, and medications are unlikely to help the condition.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
A, B

Feedback:

Daytime sleeping can interfere with the normal sleep-wake cycle. Diazepam is a long-acting benzodiazepine, and occasional use is acceptable. However, excessive use could lead to falls. Moderate exercise not performed before bedtime can help with insomnia. Alcohol can inhibit sleep in the elderly.
