Binocular cues are depth cues, such as retinal disparity and convergence, that depend on the use of two eyes.
The image above shows an example of retinal disparity, a type of binocular cue. Retinal disparity compares the images of an object seen from each of the eyeballs (for example, close your right eye and view the image from your left eye, and then do the opposite by closing your left eye and viewing the image from your right eye). You should see very different images/perspectives of the same object when you compare each of the images from each of your eyes. In the image above, the little house is visible from the perspective of the right eye but not the left.
