An Analysis of Clinical Test Results for Anomalous Correspondence

Anomalous retinal correspondence — a review

“…All of them retained anomalous binocular single vision throughout. Similarly diverse results were found by Johnston (1970) and Kerr (1980). The enigmatic nature of these anomalous fusional movements had been noted earlier by Alpern and Hofstetter (1948) who emphasized the remarkable slowness of these eye movements.…”

“…However, two-thirds of the 93 subjects showed the same diagnosis on four out of the five methods employed. A similar investigation by Johnston (1970) included the Bagolini lens and came to the same conclusion of being unable to support the "depth" concept. Unfortunately all the patients in this investigation "had previously shown an anomalous correspondence with either the synotophore or after-image tests" (p. 42).…”

A neurophysiological model for anomalous correspondence based on mechanisms of sensory fusion

“…AC changes up to 8 PD (about 4.5 deg) in 16 out of 18 patients reported in a similar experiment . The effect has been confirmed by Johnston (1970), although all of his variable subjects, like some of the subjects in both studies just cited, showed an incomplete change in angle of anomaly supplemented by some turning of the eye. In all four of his subjects, Kerr (1969) atso found that prism-induced change in angle of anomaly was accompanied by change in eye position.…”

“…Similar criticisms may be levelled at another apparent disconfirmation of the dissociating power and depth of anomaly concepts (Johnston, 1970): small, unfusible stimuli with a paucity of contour content were devised, and exposed only briefly. Although the striated glasses test was included, subjects in this study were specifically restricted to those having previously shown an anomalous correspondence with either the synoptophore or afterimage test.…”
