Which eye do you observe with? - Page 2

I am R/H L/E.

Problem is last night I tried using my right eye for a change and found I can see better with it (with glasses on). Damn uncomfortable for me though. Not used to it.

Going to get my eyes checked, as I think I need new glasses. haven't had a check up for years.

Another R/H Right observer. But my eye-sight is so shot that I've got to close one eye when using binos - I cannot get the images to converge.

Left handed, right eye. When I come to Oz, will that reverse on me?

I am right eyed and right handed, but blind as a bat in the left eye, I operate a mouse with my left hand.

Well, I'm right handed but left eyed, since I caught a cricket ball with my left eye at age 18 (a long time ago believe me). At 36 I had an interocular implant which makes it possible to use my right eye, but I get internal reflections in the eye instead of the scope, so I stick to the left, which has its own share of problems (yes, that sentence is now long enough) . This could be why I now prefer imaging to visual observing.

Come to think of it, I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous

.

Cheers

Right handed, right eye for viewing, right foot for kicking the footy and operate the mouse with the right hand. I don't know how you can do the mouse in your left hand Dave if your right handed, i tried it and couldn't control the mouse.

Mostly my right eye, I'm also right handed. I try to use an eyepatch over the unused eye and swap to the left eye occasionally. My vision in the right eye (slight astigmatism) is not as good as the left, but I don't notice much difference.

atalas · #35 14-10-2005, 12:36 PM

Well I too am right handed and observe with my right eye,I have a touch of astigmatism in It but I can't for the life of me get use to observing with my left !
I have noticed that using Naglers It virtaully disappears !

Cheers

Right handed, but view with my left eye.
Unfortunately I have a lot of astigmatism in this eye. Viewing with specs on isn't much fun, so I guess what I should do is train myself to use my right eye.
Can anyone reccomend a comfortable EP for wearers of specs?
