A method for assessing retinal correspondence by projecting afterimages of two flashing lights, one vertical and one horizontal, onto each eye. In normal retinal correspondence (NRC), the afterimages form a cross. In anomalous retinal correspondence (ARC), the afterimages are offset, indicating a mismatch between the fovea of one eye and an extra-foveal point in the other eye.
