About 10 years ago, I had RK.  The result of which is one eye is near
sighted, and one is far sighted.  Very interesting when I go the
optometrist.  The skinny is that "the farther away my corrective lenses are,
the worse my depth perceptions is."  To summarize, I have to wear contacts
to get my depth perception to an acceptable level.

Being both far sighted and near sighted, is a little different than the
topic here.  It could be the general reason why the FAA discourages trying
to use different correction in each eye.  I do not have a problem passing
the eye exam.
