In this context the term ‘binocular correspondence’ refers to the process by which features present on one retina are matched to similar features on the retina of the other eye in order to deliver a perception of stereoscopic depth. An initial condition for this process is that the ocular axes are aligned (i.e. not strabismic). Thus, bringing the ocular axes into correspondence can be thought of as the first essential stage in the whole process of binocular correspondence.
