Okay, before you guys say that Its just I can see better through my left eye than my right hear me out.

If I cover up my left eye and try to read using my right, the closest description of reading is that it seems as if the letters are moving and I can't keep track of which letter is which, but in my left eye I can read perfectly fine. Anyone know what this is?

Please note that I have never learned to see with both eyes, I either have to concentrate or cover up my left eye to see with my right.

have you ever been to a eye doctor
its possible you could have cataracts on your eyes or even glocoma if its hereditary in your family... i have problems seeing as well but i have a stigmatism on my eye(where the eye doesnt open to see properly)

yeah I have been to an eye doctor, and my mom has had cataracs, my vision in both eyes isn't like what my mom describes seeing with cataracs is like. My eyes open properly but I think I have an extra flap of skin on my right eyelid.

my sight problem is with my right eye, I needed glasses for it and it helped my vision in that eye but even with glasses I still had a hard time keeping track of the letters.
its as if the letters of a word won't stay still so I can't read with it. now considering I can only use one eye at a time and my left eye is the one that is used mainly, I can read perfectly fine with that eye.
