====Summary====                   
{{$demo.summary}}



====Procedure====  
  - Choose a distant object, such as a clock, light switch, or picture across the room.  
  - Extend your arms fully and create a small opening with your hands.  
  - With both eyes open, look at the chosen object through the opening.  
  - Close your left eye. If the object remains visible through the opening, your right eye is dominant.  
  - If the object disappears, your left eye is dominant.  
  - Repeat the process by alternating which eye you close to confirm the result.

====Variations====
  * Use different objects at varying distances to see if results are consistent.  
  * Conduct the test in groups to compare dominant eye distribution among participants.



====Safety Precautions====
  * No specific risks, but ensure participants do not poke themselves in the eye when making the hand opening.  
  * Remind participants not to strain their eyes by forcing focus for too long.




====Questions to Consider====
  * Why might most people have a dominant eye? (It helps the brain coordinate vision and hand-eye tasks more efficiently.)  
  * Why do some people not have a clearly dominant eye? (It may depend on habits, mixed dominance, or how the brain integrates visual input.)  
  * How might dominant eye affect activities like aiming in sports or using a camera? (It can influence accuracy in targeting tasks that rely on sight alignment.)  
  * What is the difference between motor dominance and sensory dominance? (Motor dominance is which eye aligns for sighting tasks, while sensory dominance relates to which eye provides stronger visual input.)
