Ah I see what you mean. For me I don't think there is any distance where both near & far eye could each have focus -- it's always too blurry in one or the other. I could see how being able to consciously switch would feel weird!

I'm curious -- if you held a stereogram at the right distance, could you see the 3D image? Or is it also like me, only one eye at a time?



I had to do a little bit of “cross-eyeing” and then I can see something that does look like 3D. That said, my eyes are a little weird this way - back in childhood I trained to move them separately as well - a great party trick to freak out the people ! :-))
