The idea that horses don’t recognize an object seen in one eye when they see it again with the other eye was commonly believed to be true. I’m afraid it’s a myth. There is good evidence that “interocular transfer” occurs in horses (as it does in other animals). See the 1999 paper by Evelyn Hanggi in the Journal of Equine Veterinary Science.
