Amblyopia
One eye can't see well even though there doesn't seem to be any sort of physical problem. It is commonly referred to as "The Lazy Eye" disease. It interferes with binocular vision (seeing with two eyes) that limits depth perception and causes substantial eyestrain on the fully functioning eye.
