| Binocular vision is vision in which both eyes are used together. The word binocular comes from two Latin roots, bini for double, and oculus for eye.[1] Having two eyes confers at least four advantages over having one. First, it gives a creature a spare eye in case one is damaged. Second, it gives a wider field of view. For example, humans have a maximum horizontal field of view of approximately 200 degrees with two eyes, approximately 120 degrees of which makes up the binocular field of view (seen by both eyes) flanked by two uniocular fields (seen by only one eye) of approximately 40 degrees [2] Third, it gives binocular summation in which the ability to detect faint objects is enhanced.[3] Fourth it can give stereopsis in which parallax provided by the two eyes' different positions on the head give precise depth perception lavender oilladies waterproof jacketslavender oilladies waterproof jackets | |
