damn people whose eyes point in different directions!!

I met this chick at work today, she had the cross-eyed thing going on. I didn't know which eye I was supposed to look at, or which one she was seeing me out of, or anything! it was confusing!

if any of you chumps have eyes like this, do you see normally? do you like messing with people like me?

I always wondered this also. So people with lazy eyes, how do you focus in on things?
 
Seriously, When you looked at her and the tilt of her head, there's only one eyes that's looking at you. Look at that one. If you can't figure it out, slow down the convo so she looks right at you and doesn't move. It's not hard to figure out... lol
 
Man there are two people at work that I deal with all the time like this, one dude is sooooo cross eyed I have no idea how he can tell which way hes looking, the other guy isn't as bad, you can usualy tell which one he's looking at you with but he'll up and switch mid-sentence and start looking at me with the other eye, its freaky!!

no it was hard to tell! she did this glancing around thing between all the other people in the room. next time I'm just gonna hold a pencil in front of her face and move it slowly side to side until I unravel this mystery. then I'll head over to HR.

Yep, I'm serious, freaks me out.
 
It's called Amblyopia, and it effects some 3-6% of the population.

Basically, you do not see in stereoscopic vision because one eye is blurry. Your brain learns to block the blurry image, and you only end up using one eye.

The vision in the unused eye deteriorates until functional blindness.

I'm probably something like 20/100 in my right/left eyes, respectivly. 🙁 I don't know, I can't even read the text on the screen a foot away from me with my left eye. It's actually quite alarming, since I can remember when I used to be able to see out of both eyes fine.

It also messes with your depth perception, since you don't have stereo vision. My brain has learned to compensate though, and I'll almost never miss on a depth-judgement.

Fortunately, you can really only tell when I'm tired. It's an eye muscle thing, I guess. Sometimes it is more apparent than others, kinda weird really. It used to be a lot worse, but i've had some 4 surgeries to correct my left eye's muscles.
 
I have an under developed optic nerve -"lazy eye"
However im lucky enough that I can cause both of my eyes to focus forward and no one can tell. Whenever im really tired or just not paying attention somtimes my left eye will move slightly to the left.
My vision is affected slightly by this. My depth perception is a little off so dont ever throw me a fastball.

A person with normal eyesight should see like this:

----|----

I see sorta like this when im not focusing properly:

------|
------
And the image in the left eye is a little smaller than that of the right.

Its annoyng but not unbearable and i can control it almost all of the time.
 
i was at a cyber cafe that iv never been to before and the guy at the help desk was crossed eyed. weridist thing was he was in a cs match for some league, i wonder if hes good 😕

he wore glasses so i didnt notice i was looking at the wrong eye until i noticed it wasnt looking at me
 
I have amblyopia and can't catch a ball for the life of me because I have no depth perception. Most likely the eye that is looking at you is the dominant eye and the image that is clearest and mostly concentrated on.
 
i try not to be weirded out by that kind of thing. cuz i know if had that kind of affliction i would have a complex about it. i normaly jsut look people in between the eyes, so it makes me crosseyed too.
