If you placed the two different images on top of one another, they would not match and our vision would be out of focus. However, our brains sort out these varying visual messages from our two eyes, combines the images, and the recreates one three-dimensional image. This is referred to as binocular vision. Just like your look through two lenses in binoculars, humans view the world through two lenses. The eyes of many other animals are placed differently than ours.
Many birds have an eye on each side of their head.
Each eye sees a completely separate area stretching out on the left or the right. Viewing the world through two eyes provides us with depth perception. When you look at the flower through just one eye, it looks a lot flatter.
