Buzz's Leading eye theory - small survey
« on: March 03, 2011, 05:39:07 PM »
Hello - my corollary is this - whether you bat left or right handed is governed by which is your leading/dominant eye.

If you don't know which is your leading eye...
1.Choose two vertical edges or objects, one a few feet behind the other - looking through a doorframe to something on the wall behind is ideal.
2.Stand about 10 feet away from the closest edge.
3.Look carefully at the alignment of the edges or objects.
4.Without moving, cover or close one eye and look at the objects with the other eye.
5.Switch eyes, looking through the eye you had previously covered, and closing the other one.
6.Look at the objects with both eyes again.
7.You should now be able to identify which eye observed little or no real change, and which eye noticed a shift in the the objects. Repeat the previous steps if needed.
8.The eye which observed a change in the objects is your non-dominant eye. The eye which observed the same view as with both eyes open is your dominant eye!

Lhb right eye for me. Believe that's going with what should be a strong correlation.

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Spoke to an optometrist about how to check this this morning.

1. Look at an object some distance away with both eyes.
2. use your finger to cover said point.
3. Cover one eye and then the other. The eye for which your finger remains covering the object is the dominant one.
