Ocular dominance

Ocular dominance
Are you right or left eye dominant?

Don't know, there is an easy way to find out. Pick something in the distance to focus on. The make a circle (index finger/thumb) with both hands and overlap them (you can also hold a small tube with both hands). With both eyes open extend your arms and place the object in the circle then slowly move your hands to your face keeping the object in the circle and shrinking the circle size if you need to. When you reach you nose you'll know. Try it twice and switch which hand is in front.

Turns out I'm left eyed but right handed. Some tell me that's why I completed certain tasks left handed.

Seem to be left eye dominant. Not really a surprise as when I started wearing glasses as a teen, my left lens was plain glass.

I need correction for both now but more for the right than the left.

Right handed, left eye dominant. I learned to shoot left handed as a result which made military training fun, what with hot brass casings being ejected into my uniform tunic.

Literally just got back from having an eye test!
Right eyes is better, left eye very slightly worse than last year, but not worth changing my prescription, everything else is fine apart from very early signs of cataracts.

Same thing with shooting, except with a pistol. Any aiming with two hands it's left handed, kind of fun when playing pool and making bets. I also use scissors lefty.

Last person I'd expect to respond, now I have thread guilt. Doh

Left eye dominant. My myopia is -1.5 on the left -2.25 on the right. Though I do have some scarring at the back of my left eye for some reason.

And no, I'm not stabbing it in my sleep.
