Yeah don't feel bad. I couldn't do the fly test until last year. I'm 22 now. Honestly I'm not even supposed to be able to do the fly test. The doctor says it's very rare for people with Duane syndrome to come as far as I have.

Hey! I have double Duane syndrome which has limited my depth perception because it's hard for my eyes to work together but not impossible. I read what you said about occulus rift and I can relate a little bit. If I go to a 3D movie I have a miserable time because it puts an incredible amount of strain on my eyes getting them to render the 3D. The only 3D test I can pass at the optometrist is the fly wings. It's not really relevant to the AMA but it's interesting to see people with similar eye conditions.

From my understanding of the fly wing test it's the most basic form of 3D that our eyes are capable of. You put those awkward glasses on and look at a 3D type book thing. There is a picture of a fly and the way the book is made is such that when you put these glasses on the wings are supposed to pop out into 3D space. You are supposed to be able to pinch the wings. There are other 3D tests that normal every day people are supposed to be able to pass pretty easily but I've never been able to.

Edit: Here is the test.
