Sue Barry learned to see with both eyes

Stereogram by www.hidden-3d.com.
Dubbed “Stereo Sue” by neurologist Oliver Sacks in a New Yorker article by that name, Sue Barry has gone on to write her own book Fixing My Gaze which describes the astonishing experience of gaining 3D stereovision after a lifetime of seeing in only two dimensions. Intensive vision therapy created new neural connections, and with them, a new view of the world. Challenging conventional wisdom that the brain is programmed for life during a critical period in childhood, Barry offers a poignant and revelatory account of our capacity for change.
In 2021, Sue published a second book: COMING TO OUR SENSES: A Boy Who Learned to See, A Girl Who Learned to Hear, and How We All Discover the World.
