Siamese cats do not have the ability to form one image from information that comes into two eyes. This means that Siamese do not have vision that is quite as sharp as other cats, and it also means that they often have a cross-eyed appearance.
In fact, crossed eyes are typical for a Siamese cat: this problem arises early in a kitten’s life when the brain is not able to compensate and the eye muscles get accustomed to that position, which creates the cross-eyed appearance.
