Would It Be Possible To Have Three Eyes?

[DeVena]

Well apparently you can be born with four eyes and two mouths.

Three eyes are possible as well. I have no idea if any or all would be functional.

“Children are being born with deformities like cleft palate, three eyes, all fingers joined, one extra finger, one testicle, different skull shapes, and Down’s syndrome”, says N Ganesh, a researcher at the Jawaharlal Nehru Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (JNCHRC).

In reference to birth defects in Bhopal, India (originally published in The Lancet).

My Mom had a pair of eyes in the back of her head.

Now, Retief, that’s not a very diplomatic thing to say. We are differently-optically-abled.

I’m completely blind in the right eye from birth. The nerve endings didn’t connect according to an optometrist my parents went to.

It doesn’t affect me much for everyday things but depth perception intensive things like baseball are not things I’m good at, plus I have to turn my head a lot more.

Overall my brain just adapted to one good eye I think.
