- Depth Perception and Driving. The loss of an eye causes depth perception problems for awhile. Fortunately, depth perception cues are learned in many ways, including the visual. Your body assists you greatly in being able to judge distances.

Understanding Your Depth Perception We use a number of different tools for depth perception; these tools are known as depth cues. These cues are classified into binocular (both eyes), monocular (one eye), and inferred (combined binocular and monocular cues). A person’s ability to perceive distances and sizes depends on which cues are available to them.

Astigmatism Astigmatism usually occurs when the front surface of your eye, the cornea, has an irregular curvature. Astigmatism is one of a group of eye conditions known as refractive errors and these errors cause a disturbance in the way that light rays are focused within your eye.n astigmatism, the front surface of the cornea is curved more in one direction than in the other. This abnormality may result in vision that is much like looking into a distorted, wavy mirror. The distortion results because of an inability of the eye to focus light rays to a single point.

Eye Disorders & Vision Problems in Parkinsonâs Disease Types of Eye Problems in Parkinson’s Disease. 1  Blurred vision or difficulty in focusing may be due to difficulty in moving the eyes or due to the side effects of Parkinson’s drug therapy, especially anticholinergics. This problem may occur on starting treatment with anticholinergics, but normally improves over time.

- A major cause of double vision involving both eyes is misalignment of the eyes such that they cannot focus equally on an object. An eye muscle imbalance or refractive (eyeglass) problem can be responsible.

Eye health guide Lens problems. Cataracts are the most common problem with the lens that causes double vision. If cataracts are present in both eyes, images from both eyes will be distorted. Cataracts are often correctable with surgery. Muscle problems. If a muscle in one eye is weak, that eye can't move smoothly with the healthy eye.

- If you have perfect vision, the rays focus directly on the surface of the retina. But in a myopic eye, the eyeball is usually too long from front to back. This causes light rays to focus at a point in front of the retina, rather than directly on its surface. This makes distant objects blurry. Myopia can also be the result of a cornea that is too curved for the length of the eyeball or a lens that is too thick. For some people, their myopia may be caused by a combination of problems in the cornea, lens, and length of the eyeball.

Adult Strabismus Adults frequently have disabling double vision because of eye misalignment. Prism glasses or surgery will likely improve the double vision and depth perception. Heavy prism glasses can be uncomfortable and causes distorted vision, surgery can be evaluated by your surgeon to decrease the dependence on prism glasses.

- Most nearsightedness is caused by a natural change in the shape of the eyeball. Less often, nearsightedness may be caused by a change in the cornea or the lens. These problems cause light rays entering the eye to focus in front of the retina. Normally, light focuses directly on the retina.f you are nearsighted, objects in the distance appear blurry and out of focus. You might squint or frown when trying to see distant objects clearly. View a photo as seen through a normal and a nearsighted eye. Nearsightedness is usually a variation from normal, not a disease.

Why am I seeing double? Monocular double vision is less common than binocular double vision, and can be caused by the following conditions: Astigmatism: the cornea is irregularly shaped (the transparent layer at the front of the eye). This causes a refractive error; in other words, the light is bent more, or less, than it should be.

Progressive Lenses and No Line Bifocals Most adaptation problems to progressive lenses are caused by one of the following: 1  inaccurate placement of the optical center (segment/fitting height) of the lens-the segment/fitting height should be placed at the same spot as the patient's previous progressive lenses or for new wearers it should be exactly in the center of the pupil.

Refractive Errors And Refraction: How The Eye Sees 1 A person can be nearsighted or farsighted with or without astigmatism. 2  Curvature of the lens. 3  If the lens is too steeply curved in relation to the length of the eye and the curvature of the cornea, this causes nearsightedness.

Refractive Errors And Refraction: How The Eye Sees 1 If the eye is too short, light is not focused by the time it reaches the retina. 2  This causes farsightedness or hyperopia. 3  Curvature of the cornea. 4  If the cornea is not perfectly spherical, then the image is refracted or focused irregularly to create a condition called astigmatism.

Marijuana vs. Cigarettes: Which is Worse? Many experts would have you believe that marijuana is no worse than smoking a cigarette. Sure, weed contains more tar than your regular tobacco stick.

Common vision problems Common vision problems. The most common vision problems are refractive errors, more commonly known as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and presbyopia. Refractive errors occur when the shape of the eye prevents light from focusing directly on the retina.

Causes of Tunnel Vision Causes of Tunnel Vision. Tunnel vision is the condition where the sufferer has difficulty seeing objects at the edges of the normal field of vision and can only properly focus on objects in a narrow, tunnel-like field.

Vision Conditions Vision Conditions. Myopia. Myopia, also known as shortsightedness or nearsightedness, is a condition in which distant objects appear out of focus. Myopia occurs when the physical length of the eye is greater than the optical length, causing the visual image to focus in front of the retina instead of directly onto it.

Common vision problems Astigmatism is a common type of refractive error. It is a condition in which the eye does not focus light evenly onto the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes through one object to another.

Depth Perception Cues (Psychology) Binocular vision is vision with two eyes, and the main cue for depth perception associated with binocular vision is retinal disparity. Since the pupils of the eyes are roughly about three inches apart, this means that the right eye gives a slightly different image to that of the left eye.

What is Aniseikonia? This condition is treatable with corrective lenses. Some people naturally have aniseikonia as a result of having radically different visual acuity in both eyes, or because of variations in the size and shape of the eyes themselves.

- Magnification Due to a large OID, or a small SID. Distortion: Can be caused by the thickness of the object or the position of the object. Focal Spot Blur: Can be caused by a large Focal Spot Size, a short SID, or a long OID. Subject Factors. Patient Thickness: A large patient results in a grayer film, (low contrast).

Eye health guide Problems with any part of the vision system can lead to double vision. Cornea problems. Problems with the cornea often cause double vision in one eye only. Covering the affected eye makes the double vision go away. The abnormal surface of the eye distorts incoming light, causing double vision.

The Human Eye, Its Functions, and Visual Impairment 1 Myopia (Nearsightedness). 2  Myopia is blurred vision that occurs when the eye's focusing mechanism brings light to a focus in front of the retina, usually because the eyeball is very elongated in shape. 3  Eyeglasses or contact lenses correct myopia but do not slow or alter its progression.

Visual Disabilities: Gaining Depth Perception and Stereo Vision -- No Longer Stereo-Blind Our daughter Leyna came for Vision Therapy with no depth perception and blinking vision in one eye. Her other eye didn't have good vision either. ... she has no more problems in any of these areas. Her grades are excellent and she's on the Honor Roll now.

Eye health guide Problems with seeing clearly at night can be common, but night blindness can often be treated successfully. Night vision problems can also be a sign of progressive eye conditions. Causes of night vision problems include: Cataracts. The lens of the eye is located behind the pupil. Over a lifetime, the process of cell turnover inside the lens produces debris that gradually builds up.
