Return To Binoculars FAQ Archive   Search the Archives Why can I see better through my binoculars when I close one eye? Answered By Brent Trumbauer, Editor People with problems in the eyes have problems like this. When one eye sees better than the other it creates a blurred stereoscopic image when both eyes are opened. Using a binocular does not correct the eye defect. It just magnifies what your eye sees. You maybe are seeing better when your one eye is closed behind binoculars because your other eye has a defect. Even for those with good vision, closing one eye for a monoscope, telescope or other scope with one eyepiece helps your eye to focus and magnifies what you are seeing. So, it is natural to close one eye. keywords: Binoculars | Binocular | Telescope | Optics | Magnification | Field Glasses | Vision Binoculars Dusk
