Re: Dominant eye vs. lazy eye

[P3D Tom Lang <tomlang@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, here's someone with experience. I have what has been diagnosed as
"lazy eye" or amblyopia (spelling?).  My right eye is extremely dominant.
My left suffers from reduced resolution.  The resolving power in the
center is actually worse than off-center.  I still have binocular vision.
My eyes track opjects together.  I experience and enjoy stereo images.  I
get a good sense of depth through the viewer.  I suspect my sense of depth
in projected 3d might be somewhat reduced.  (I have watched Captain EO at
Disneyland.  I find myself seeing objects comming off the screen, but
don't see the need to reach out and touch them or duck out of the way).

I have been unable to free-view images, and suspect this is due to an
incredible coordination I have between eye-crossing and focus distance...I
just can't un-coordinate.  I also have been unable to see the magic eye
hidden pictures.
