Stereopsis is the perception of depth and 3-dimensional structure obtained on the basis of visual information deriving from two eyes by individuals with normally developed binocular vision. It specifically arises from the brain's analysis of the different retinal images seen by each eye, due to their different perspectives. This binocular disparity is a crucial cue for depth perception.
