Synonyms

Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently built from 'binocular' (relating to both eyes) + 'vision' (sight), so a learner who knows both words will readily infer 'vision using both eyes' including depth perception. This compositional pattern is straightforward and common across languages, making it immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Binocular vision comes from a simple idea: binocular means 'two eyes' and vision means 'seeing', so it is seeing with both eyes together. When both eyes work together they let you see more around you and help your brain 'judge how far away' things are, so the term means seeing that helps you judge distance.
