Not from an accident. My right eye is a "lazy eye". I only see from it if I "turn it on". So I have to turn my head quite a ways to the right to use my left eye to see out of the right hand rear view mirror. I have no depth perception which was quite a shock to the head instructor at the first Bondurant racing class I took... Driving on a race track is 100x easier than a street since everyone is predictable and doesn't speed up in the right lane when you're trying to pass
and brake points are marked...
PS. I'm still unrestricted (no corrective lenses) on my drivers license even though I wear glasses all the time... My left eye is good enough.
All of this conspired to make the Ford GT a very difficult car to drive in city traffic.
