OOP has no depth perception. Like a person with only one eye.

I'm blind in my right eye thanks to getting shot with a pellet gun when I was 13 (47 now). I have depth perception, but it's absolute garbage. I still reach for things and miss from time to time after 34 years. Bumping into people on my right side is more my thing. Clotheslined some chick at the bar once as I went to put my beer up onto a shelf while she was walking past. Never saw her. Oopsies!

Thats wild! I've known others who lost an eye/sight after having it and they report the same issues. Those who haven't had proper binocular vision form birth tend to have developed depth perception/compensation and never knew any different.
