It depends on how long they've been affected by it.  My dad had very poor 
peripheral vision and near the end of his life was almost completely 
blind in one eye - he had absolutely no depth perception at all 
(demonstrated to me several times when I tossed car keys to him and he 
could never tell how far away they were).

Those who are affected by such a condition for most of their life, 
though, have often adjusted to their circumstances.
