Here's an interesting little study (with plenty of references) that draws this conclusion:
5. Conclusions
In conclusion, we found better performance in a visual search task for the dominant eye. These results suggest that the dominant eye has perceptual processing priority, arising from enhanced salience of the perceived target. In addition, we found the surprising result that representations of elements presented to the dominant eye inhibit the input that arrives via the non-dominant eye. These results contrast the suggestion made by
Mapp et al. (2003)that eye dominance has no effect in performing binocular tasks, but only affects the eye that will be preferred for performing a monocular task. The findings are even more significant when one considers that all potential subjects were screened for eye-dominance using the hole-in-the-card test. That is, we used a monocular, not a competitive binocular test for choosing subjects and determining their dominant eye. Finally, these effects work at long range and thus are probably based on high level mechanisms.
These principles may be used in practice when designing visual displays. If a task is to be performed monocularly (as in looking through a telescope or microscope) then participants should use the dominant eye; (see also
Mapp et al., 2003). However, when we can introduce information to both eyes, separately, then superior performance may be obtained by having target information introduced to the dominant eye and non-target, noise, introduced to the other, non-dominant, eye. This may be implemented, for example, by having the viewer identify a target at one moment, and having it presented from then on to the dominant eye while other objects are presented to the non-dominant eye.
