I do something similar, when reading stuff around 15 feet (typically text on TV screens). In my case, it's because I have one long-sighted eye and one short-sighted (so I use one for close-up stuff like reading and the other for far stuff like driving, while effectively ignoring input from the other). In the cross-over zone, it's easier to close one eye than to let them compete for dominance.
- walterbell 9y agoAre your eyes naturally like that, or are you wearing monovision contacts, https://www.eyehealthweb.com/monovision/ https://www.eyehealthweb.com/monovision/?
- hazeii 9y agoNaturally, always been like it. I got some glasses back in my 20's to correct it, but the effect was to put everything into the zone where each eye would struggle for dominance (maybe I should have persisted, to see if my neural circuitry would eventually adapt and give me binocular vision). Interesting link to monovision, thanks! That's pretty much describes where I am - entirely by chance.
