Good point. Now I suppose we should compare a binocular to a monocular.
What is the difference, this is not a science lesson?

English, she is always logical?I do not understand why a binocular is referred to as a pair of binoculars, nor as binoculars referring to one binocular.
A bicycle is a bicycle. I have never heard of a pair of bicycles in a similar context.
Sally Salter, she was a young teacher who taught,
And her friend, Charley Church, was a preacher who praught;
Though his enemies called him a screecher who scraught.
His heart, when he saw her, kept sinking, and sunk;
And his eye, meeting hers, began winking, and wunk;
While she in her turn, fell to thinking, and thunk.
In secret he wanted to speak, and he spoke,
To seek with his lips what his heart long had soke,
So he managed to let the truth leak, and it loke.
The kiss he was dying to steal, then he stole;
At the feet where he wanted to kneel, then he knole;
And he said, "I feel better than ever I fole."
Good point. Now I suppose we should compare a binocular to a monocular.
