Suggest Ways Of Improving Depth Perception

I am having trouble with depth perception - trying to back up a school bus and being too far away from the target that my back bumper is suppose to touch . Is there a way to improve depth perception? I have had lasik eye surgery for extreme near-sightedness and pretty extreme astigmatism

problem is binocularity. refraction is to be done. reason of loss of binocularity is to be ascertained. anisometropia and deference is more then 2.5 then there will be amblyopia in one eye causing loss of binocularity.the cause may be high myopia and astigmatism. in this case the bad eye can be blocked to avoid problem of depth perception.
