You may find this question to be very bizzare or weird, but because i'm blind in my right eye I don't know how people with good vision sees
So heres the question I hope that i'm making sense and that you guys understand it lol.
When you look is there a stripe in between your eyes? What I mean is people have 2 eyes one on each side of their noses. So when your looking do you see your your nose. Since i'm blind in my right eye I can only see on one side so I don't know if people who have perfect vision see that part of their face where there is no eyes.
I'm probably not going to get an answer because my question probably doesn't make any sense, but I hope someone can answer this.

We don't see any sort of defining line between our left & right eyes. It blends into one complete picture. We can't really see our full nose. I see a little blurry pink bump at the bottom of my vision. It is easily ignored, unless I'm specifically trying to see it. I have to "cross my eyes" to bring it into focus.

No, we don't see our noses, well, not more than you see one side of your nose with one eye.
Unless we're suffering from double vison the two eye images are fused into one perception.
This does lead to some odd perceptions, which are not normally noticed.
For example we can see the opposite sides of a die at the same time held, say, a foot away, or both sides of a piece of paper held edge-on lined up with the nose.
(two-eyed people: try that, and then see what happens when you shut one eye, then the other)
A 400 year old joke:
A man with one eye bet a man with two eyes that he could see more with his one eye than the man with two eyes could.
A soon as the two-eyed man accepted the bet, the man with one eye said:
"I can see two eyes. How many can you see?"

I totally get your question, as well.
It's much like Chris has said. Our eyes are not focused on that part so we basically are looking straight out and focusing on whatever is there.
However, if I close one eye and turn the other towards where my nose would be I can easily see the side of my nose.
Hope that helped as well as Chris' answer! :]

well good Question...but i can say one thing and this is true...as a person with two eyes if i put my hand towards my face in the middle of my nose..seems my hand is invisible..but if i close ether eye can see each side of my hand...this could be your brain trying to make two sides out of one....there for your brain is using one eye as two...hope my answer does not sound..bizzare or weird....

I look with only one eye because the other one has a cataract that makes everything blurry if I close my good eye. Yes when you have a blind eye it appears that you are are using both eyes but you have a scotoma or blind spot.

I get your question. It kind of depends on where your focusing. If I'm reading your question, I'm not really paying attention to it, but if I look at my nose on purpose, yes there is a little bar. It just doesn't seem like it's there because it's not what we are focused on.
I hoped this helped!

One eye picks up for where the other leaves off. That is how God makes us.
