Seeing in Stereo, Part 2
Bob Paquette (2009-07-03)
AMHERST, MA (wfcr) - Susan Barry was born cross-eyed. As a young child, she had three surgeries on her eyes that uncrossed them. But as she told us in Part One of her interview, it wasn't until she was in college that Barry learned she didn't see the world in stereo, the way most of us do. In her book, "Fixing My Gaze", Barry, a Mount Holyoke College professor, describes what the lack of 3-D vision meant as she tried to perform normal adult tasks. Parking a car -- or driving at night -- was difficult. © Copyright 2009, wfcr
