Find some clear safety glasses with individual lenses, get a fine tip marker pen and put a small fine cross on the RH lenses about the same diameter in total as 1p coin in line with ware your right eye would be centred, put on the clear safety glasses with the fine cross marked on the RH lenses and tell us what you see - a combined image by your brain.

It is the same “optical brain trick” used by NV/targeting monocles etc used by pilots of e.g. AH-64 or I use to use when I did a lot of shooting with both iron and telescopic sights (you get use to seeing a merged image with the black haze of the outside of the telescopic sights with the left eye which you don’t get with a monocle etc)
