It would be nice to have a pair of glasses I could use to tune out and blur my surroundings or what I watch but I’m not sure exactly if its a thing…

    Whats the timeframe tho. For reasons I dont want to throw out there haha I can sort of prove this is nominally inaccurate in my case on the assumption that the time spent in blur is brief.

      Looking directly at the sun for short periods of time doesn’t immediately cause problems, but years down the line you will start to notice a section of your vision start to become like a void, no color, no light, just a lack of sight.

      Just because you don’t notice an immediate effect doesn’t mean you’re not causing harm. The human body is a wonder of redundancy, and having ways of compensating in the short term. But eventually those compensations start to fade.
