You need to have 2 eyes in reasonable good nick to begin with. You then need to focus your eyes to a point beyond the picture. If you stare at the picture eventually maybe some characters will begin to overlap, sort of like seeing in double. Trouble is, to begin with they are probably the wrong characters. So the result is a blur. But that's cool. It's a start. If you can get identical adjacent characters to overlap throughout the whole picture - then you will also be seeing the depth. Somehow the brain find comfort in this more organised state. It also helps to relax the eyes and allow them to scan randomly about the picture. Well that's my non-scientific way of understanding it ;-)
