    Experiment No. 14

    Two eyes are Better than one!

    Experiment: To show that two eyes give a fuller picture.

    Materials:

    You will need:

    Yourself!

    Method:

    1) With both eyes open, take your two index fingers and bring them together at arms reach in front of your face.
    Easy, isn't it?

    2) Now, close one eye and try it.

    Variation:

    3) Try catching a small ball with one eye blacked out or closed.

     

    Conclusion: There is little doubt that having a second eye adds greatly to our ability to function correctly.

    Now, experiment 15 takes a look at ways in which you can fool your eyes - optical illusions.
