TL;DR: Monocular testing showed a lateral shift in pointing to targets in opposite directions for each eye, which indicates that registered, as opposed to actual, convergence is a factor in near distance perception, and that opposite adaptation occurs within the motor control system for eachEye.
Abstract: Subjects inspected their feet via base-out prisms for 3 min. Using binocular vision, subsequent reaching without prisms showed significant overestimation of distance. Monocular testing showed a lateral shift in pointing to targets in opposite directions for each eye. This indicates that registered, as opposed to actual, convergence is a factor in near distance perception, and that opposite adaptation occurs within the motor control system for each eye.

TL;DR: When the Howard-Dolman apparatus is turned on its side the binocular cue of retinal disparity is not present and Ss' mean setting of when the rods were side by side is less accurate with monocular vision and with binocular vision using the horizontal apparatus than with bin telescopes using the upright apparatus.
Abstract: When the Howard-Dolman apparatus is turned on its side the binocular cue of retinal disparity is not present. 13 Ss made 5 settings for each of four conditions—monocular and binocular vision for apparatus both upright and horizontal. Ss' mean setting of when the rods were side by side is less accurate with monocular vision and with binocular vision using the horizontal apparatus than with binocular vision using the upright apparatus.
