This demonstration identifies which eye is dominant for sighting tasks using the Miles test. By focusing on an object through a hand-made opening and closing each eye, participants can determine their dominant eye.

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

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

• 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.

• 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.)
