All primates have two eyes that face forward. This includes humans. Having two eyes is an evolutionary advantage and provides binocular vision, which means that two eyes are involved in the visual process. One of the advantages of having two eyes is the ability to perceive depth. Depth perception is achieved by: a. analyzing the differences in the images falling on the left and right eyes b. allowing light rays to converge and project an upside down image on the retina c. the optic chiasm d. changing the shape of the lens to accommodate the distance of an object
