Observational Abilities

For some strange reason I have always been able to understand how optical illusions work, spot hidden objects and find the patterns in images. Somehow this morning I got the notion that perhaps the reason for that is because I have never had binocular vision. I switch from eye to eye. I imagine that is because I had what is referred to colloquially as crossed-eyes as a young child. The Opthamologist had me wear a patch over my left eye to try to strengthen the muscles that aim the crossed eye and get it to center up. So, maybe that is how my mind changed to monocular vision.

I do the optical thing quite a bit since I find it interesting. So go to http://games.yahoo.com/braingames/brain-teasers and play around a little.
