Do 3D movies in theaters appear correctly after lasik monovision surgery?

Q. Has anyone who has actually had lasik monovision surgery tried to watch a 3D movie (the Real D 3D in theaters now)? This question isn't asking about normal lasik, only monovision where one eye views distance. Would really appreciate someone with first hand experience with this.

A. I've had the surgery about three years ago and I have monovision (left eye nearsighted / right eye farsighted). I've watched several 3D movies since then. Compared to 3D movies that I saw before the surgery, the 3D effects now are discernible, but subdued - they just don't seem to "pop".


Is it possible to see 3D if you blind in 1 eye?
Q. I was born with a cataract in my left eye that no one discovered till I was 7. I had corrective surgery & laser surgery but my brain never connected. Im 20 now and I haven't been to an eye doctor in 10 years. I was wondering if they have anything new that they are able to do. And I was wondering if you can still see 3D with only 1 eye.

A. Jmax is right, you need two points of vision to see depth. that's why with only one eye, it's easier to calculate depth if you rock your head back and forth.

Sitruc - depth isn't about light and darks, it's spatial orientation. lighting is irrelevant. you can still use logic and know if something is far away. but to see depth you need two reference points.


What r the side effects of eye laser surgery , which is done to improve ur eyesight?
Q. Thanks for ur answers. I'm feelin' confused. Dunno what to do yet...

A. There are risks to LASIK, But the problems are even greater when you add in the complications artificial corrections.

Artificial corrections don't address the real issues so our blurry vision continues to get worse year after year.

Artificial corrections bottleneck our brain speed, take away our 3D vision, give us a tight neck and tight shoulders. They suppress our imagination and reduce our senses of hearing and smell. In order to see through glasses, contacts, and lasik, our whole body is under a degree of tension. Because LASIK is etching your prescription onto your eyeballs it permanently locks these tendencies into our vision system.


Do people with a lazy eye or lazy eyes see differently?
Q. Do they see things in a different way that those of us with with eyes that both point in the same direction.
Is their peripheral vision different?

A. First I want to clear up something in this question. You are describing strabismus not lazy eye. Lazy eye is when an eye does not learn to see correctly and can't be helped even with corrective lenses because the brain does not recognize the eye. Strabismus is a variety of different conditions that affect the muscles in the eyes. Strabismus can lead to a lazy eye or amblyopia if left untreated.

I have strabismus and my peripheral vision is not different as far as I know. I do have some mild issues with depth perception and occasionally experience double vision. My brain does not perceive mind's eye images correctly or 3D movies. If I watch a 3D movie, I will usually get a nasty headache because I will see two slightly overlapping images.

My eyes point in the same direction most of the time, but my left eye will wander a little when I am tired or fatigued. I have been treated for it with two surgeries, patching, eyeglasses, and vision therapy. The condition is better than when I first started treatment, but I do not believe it is something curable. Strabismus does not really impact my life much at this point so I do not mind having it.

I left some helpful links in the sources section.
