Uh, I'm pretty sure we all see in 3D. |

But ponies are 2D. |

We actually don't have 3D vision. What we have is depth perception, the talent to pick up visual clues from a 2D picture (shadows, angles, cover etc.) to know that what we're seeing is 3D. Some of these clues depend on comparing the two different pictures that the two eyes see separately, but the majority do not.
What Derpy can do if she can learn to use the two eyes separately, is to develop better monocular vision, at the cost of losing some binocular vision. In other words, she increases her field of view, at the cost of being worse at determining distance. This is a difference that characterizes many predator and prey animals. Incidentally, real life horses (being prey animals) have largely monocular vision themselves, having the two eyes on the sides of the head and using them separately (usually one on the food and the other watching for danger). This gives them an almost 360 degree panoramical view, but gives them a hard time if they want both eyes to focus on the same thing. |

In other words, Derpy is the only real horse in Equestria. :3 |

Having double vision is NOT the same seeing in 3D or having depth perception. And real horses have piss poor depth perception because of how far apart the eyes are. |

^ It's Derpy. |
