Without binocular sight it is impossible to get distance to and size of objects. In familiar environment the brain will recover proper picture. Try to close one eye and go out to a park or street. You will be confused 🙂 People who lost one eye recently can still navigate and even drive. Otherwise it becomes very dangerous.

That is not correct. You only lose the binocular parallax information, but the brain still receives and processes many other cues. Motion parallax is one example that works fairly similarly to binocular parallax, just with one eye being in different positions over time rather than two eyes being in different positions simultaneously.
