A test to estimate the angle of ocular misalignment or strabismus. The examiner notes the position of the corneal light reflex relative to the pupil center. A temporally displaced reflex indicates exotropia (outward deviation), while a nasally displaced reflex indicates esotropia (inward deviation).
