Monocular vision is vision using only one eye. It is seen in two distinct categories: either a species moves its eyes independently, or a species typically uses two eyes for vision, but is unable to use one due to circumstances such as injury.[1]
Monocular vision can occur in both humans and animals (such as hammerhead sharks). Humans can benefit from several monocular cues when using only one eye, such as motion parallax and perspective. There are also some mythological creatures with only one eye, such as the cyclops.
