Is this also related to the dominant eye? If that's true than I am one odd person (not like you didn't already know) because I'm right handed but my left eye is the dominant one.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

No, I think the eyes are on a different system. It's more likely they're tied into brain dominance, which is the reverse of body-side dominance. I.E., if the right hemisphere of your brain is dominant you'll be left-handed. And footed.

The eyes are reversed, too. Your right optic nerve connects to your left brain and vice versa.

Hmm. Then is the question of which eye has the better vision solely a visual matter? Because I know right-handed people like beathen whose left eye is "dominant," if we're calling better-visioned dominant.
Aaaand, I have to run away for erranding now, so I can't continue this now. Later on, if you guys haven't solved it by then.

Better visioned isn't dominant. Dominant eye is just the eye that focuses most directly on an object.

I understood that the left side of your field of view from both eyes went to the right hemisphere and vice-versa.

What is even happening?
I have no vision left, as I just made it to level 17, cat stacking (200,700).

If you want to know which eye is dominant, with both eyes open, focus so that your finger appears to be covering an object in the distance. Close one eye. If the finger doesn't appear to move, the open eye is your dominant eye. There is some speculation that people with cross-dominance, i.e., right handed and left eyed, are more clumsy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think we may need to schedule an intervention for Cindy.
