Maybe this is connected to the dominant eye, if you view a real object
through an aperture made with your thumb and fore finger with both eyes and
then each one in turn,you find that the view with two eyes correlates more
with one single eye view than the other. This varies with different people
and they may need to do this excersise first to know which eye to shut for
your purposes. P.J.Homer
