I also have exotropia. I've trained my right non-dominant eye to cooperate when necessary, but unless im focusing on it, there is a drift to the right of about 25-30deg off center. Doing this I can get what I think is stereo-vision for about 10 seconds at a time.

One time sticks out in my mind as when i first needed and used stereo-vision. I was in the right hand lane driving next to a large freight truck on my left, another truck was pulling on to the highway at the same speed as the truck on my left. I had to, in about 2 seconds, decide how to handle the situation. Instinctively I locked my eyes in step and was able to determine that at maximum acceleration I would be in front of the merging truck by the time it finished merging.

The only thing that really bothers me about it is that I have the capacity for stereo vision, but my eyes are basically mis-calibrated. That and people who have stereo vision take it for granted. Catching something would be SO much easier if I could see in stereo.
