Independent eyes?! *Really freaky but funny*

Um... kinda weird topic... but you know that you can cross your eyes? Well I discovered today that I can cross my right eye, and look forward with my left one! I can't do it the other way round though. But it's totally freaked me out. I feel really worried and strange! Can anyone else do this? Or are there any other weird things that people can do?

*Hugs to all* :)

Edit: I have since discovered that I can actually do it with the other eye - it's soooo weird!

I can! And the other way round too...
It seems to disconcert people somewhat... for some reason =P
It's COOL. Not strange. *nods*
Oh yes, we're gifted. ;)



For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know… we’re not what we’ve seen

For this dance we’ll move with each other
There ain’t no other step than one foot
Right in front of the other

It's not actually weird at all... because you can use your eyes to focus either on something right near the end of your nose (both eyes inwards), and/or also you can focus on something to the far left or far right (one eye inwards, one eye outwards). This enables your eyes to effectively appear to be looking in different directions.
The time to worry is if your eyes do this without you intending them to.

I can do simular, and can have one eye looking ahead while the other looks out the side. I've had 3 operations to stop it happening out of my control, but they still do it.

I can do it, basically I cross my eyes, then try to look left or right, the result is one eye stays inwards and the other goes to it's normal position.

Conacts should be banned. Glasses are way cooler, anyway. And that way you don't accidentally catch someone sticking their finger in their eye when you're at the bus stop and auuggh *shudder*. Grand day that was, grand day. I'm sure the poor girl thought I was a tad weird :P

I can do it. It's really annoying when it happens when I don't want it too, though.



"When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.”

I can do it, I Used to have say my right eye looking forward and left eye looking inwards and then go cross eyed then make my left eye go forward etc so it was like they were bouncing off each other if that makes any sence.



Let me be the one you call

I can't do things like that but my friend can.

Once I tried to focus on two things at once and had one eye looking up and the other one looking down. That freaked everyone out.

I've got a few:
I can go from right eye open and left closed, to right closed and left open and vice versa.
Cross-eyed then rotate both eyes clockwise and anticlockwise, but it gets me dizzy...
that's about it, haven't tried any others.
