At first I seemed to be working pretty well on memory and depth perception was less of a problem than now. Lots of little things like people handing me things or reaching to pick something up. Lucky for all I think I am closer to the things than I am. At a gas station it looks like I'm going to take out the pump. When I get out sometimes the hose barely reaches. But I don't run into stuff. My friend is the opposite. He thinks he has more room than he does. His truck is dented all over.
I had to learn to drive nails all over. It looks like I'm hitting them sidewise. Only once while turning off a gas air compressor that had a lever that grounded the spark plug I missed the lever and touched the spark plug. The engine didn't shut off. I developed a new strategy. It is very hard to drill holes exactly where I need them. It takes more time to set thins up on the mill or drill press. The lathe is not so much of a problem. Catching things is tough. How many one eyed ball players are there? It might be an advantage in shooting since you sight with only your dominate eye. It might be a good defense for not allowing an attacker to get within 20 feet. I hate shopping or even being in crowded places and at first I was very scared to go into the horse corral. I'm pretty easy to sneak up on from my left.
