The reason they believe you can see more with two eyes, (in a person with binocular vision) is that the visual cortex has three sets of cells that need to be developed. Right Left and Binocular

To develop your "central" vision you will need both eyes working in tandem. Having both eyes working together switches on your central or binocular processing ability. I guess it is having a higher level of processing. We call this ability to see better with two eyes superacuity. (stereopsis)
