How or what do people with them see? Two different images?

Biggest problem I have is deciding which eye to look at when they keep switching eyes that focus on you.

I always look at the one that’s most normal.

I think they see the same as we do. After all your eyes always see two different images and your brain puts them together to make one image. And the brain can overcome some crazy shite - they did a study on chimps where they put goggles on them that flipped their vision and after a few days their brains adjusted and they acted like everything was perfectly normal.



After I noticed Bradley Cooper’s uneven eyes in American Sniper I haven’t been able to not notice.

Had this issue due to a palsy in one of the muscles in my right eye.
The brain is really efficient in filtering out the misaligned visuals. Similar to how your brain ignores your nose and processes what your right and left eyes see as a single image, depending on the severity of the misalignment, your brain can put the puzzle together.

I never had double vision but I did have limited peripheral vision on my right side. I had surgery about 15 years ago to correct the issue. The procedure was prettt wild and the results are great. My wonky eye was gone and my peripheral vision was restored.

Did you ever screw with someone by switching the eye you looked at them with and then watch them switch back and forth to compensate?

I've got an astigmatism I guess, my left eye can drift off. I'll let it drift to frick with people sometimes.

Guy at the shop is called "Hurricane". Can't tell where the eye is going.

Used to drive long haul. Jokes he could back into any dock because he looked at both mirrors at the same time.

Their brains adjust the pattern they "observe".

I have symptoms of glaucoma in rt eye.
If i only use rt eye 30% is blurred.
When i use both eyes, I have 20/20 corrected and no blur in observed "field".

That's not astigmatism, that's strabismus. Astigmatism is a common defect in the shape of the cornea that causes light to focus at multiple points on the retina. I have it in spades. When I look at a point of light, I see multiple points smeared over an angled line. Larger objects just look blurry. It's correctable with a cylindrical lens, which is ground onto one surface of an eyeglasses lens. It's very important that the cylinder axis be properly aligned; rotating by a degree or two throws them totally out of whack. In that way they differ from spherical lenses used to correct near/far sightedness.
