What do you see when you get down on the shot

Out of curiosity, do you see double vision of the shaft when you get down on the shot and do your practice strokes? If so, how do you fix this? Is seeing double normal?

I see double when down on the shot. But use it to my advantage as when cutting to the left I use the right cueball which is the my left eye seeing the cueball and vice versa. Confusing? Yeah hard to explain to people. Joe Tuckers Magic Eye really helps with this double vision
 
I see the line I want the ob to roll into the pocket. i see the line the cb will roll to hit the ob. this same line is ｗｈａｔ　ｍｙ　ｓｈａｆｔ　ｉｓ　ａｌｉｇｉｇｎｅｄ　ｏｎ．

Unfortunately, I have a hard time seeing the stroke line when I get down. Standing up it's easy for me.

I do too. I try to keep my head, and cue on the stroke line when I transition from standing to getting down to shooting position. The cue shaft and my head stay on this stroke line the whole time.

Practice strokes, pull back, follow through, shaft and tip always on the stroke line. Focusing on the stroke line has helped my pocketing tremendously. This is for non-english shots.

Yeah, I noticed that I come across the stroke line when I come down on the shot. I have to work on my feet placement, and learn to bring my head straight down. It's just not normal for me yet.

I've also been tweaking my elbow position and grip, as I noticed I have a weird curvy follow through as I stroke through the cue ball.
