Why can’t our eyes focus on two things at once?

For example: Why do both eyes have to be focused on the same thing or object, why aren’t we able to read a seperate text with the left eye but at the same time read another text with the right eye.

In theory both eyes could be moved and focused independently from one another. But our eyes and brain have evolved to give us depth perception, which relies on both eyes working together. So our brains dont know how to work them independently. I believe chameleons have that ability.
