Does a person’s eyes pointing in different directions affect their eyesight (depth perception and field of vision for example)?
In: 10
Depth perception? Oh hell yes. One of my eyes is stronger than the other and it has caused me to have horrible depth perception. I can only imagine it would be more pronounced with a drifting eye.
Our brains do this super awesome fusion of the images of each eye into one picture. For someone with an eye abnormality affecting one eye, the brain will “favor” the image from the good eye.
In almost every case, the brain is receiving less information to form its picture vs two eyes with 2020 vision. And will have poorer vision in almost every measure.
Yay for glasses and modern optical science!
