'Knowledge' is not a term I would use here, however, the two hemispheres are not identical, far from it! EEG and MRI prove that certain cortical regions of the cerebrum have very specific functions associated with one hemisphere or the other.

Split-brain patients (when the corpus callosum is cut in severe epilepsy to avoid the generation of mirror foci) for example are able to name an object only if it is presented in the visual field ipsilateral (on the same side) with the speech centers in the prefrontal and temporal cortex (usually the left side).

On which brain side are objects viewed by your left eye interpreted?

Objects viewed by your left eye are interpreted by the right side of your brain. Each eye sends visual information to both hemispheres of the brain, but the input from the left eye is predominantly processed by the right hemisphere. This allows for integration and coordination of visual information across both sides of the brain.
