Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Binocular disparity refers to the slightly different image that each eye receives due to the distance between them, which allows the brain to perceive depth. This makes it an important depth-perception cue. Surgery or glasses may correct other vision problems, but they cannot change the natural difference between the two eyes' images that produces binocular disparity. Neural convergence and the lateral geniculate are both involved in visual processing, but not specifically in creating binocular disparity.
