Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Binocular disparity refers to the difference in the image location of an object seen by the left and right eyes, which provides a depth cue that helps us perceive the distance of objects in 3D space. This makes it an important depth-perception cue. It is not corrected by surgery or glasses, and is not mediated by the lateral geniculate; rather, it results from the integration of signals from the left and right retinae in the visual cortex, through neural convergence.
