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…
Do you… do you have eyelids?
You should have eyelids.
Seriously though, blurred glasses seems like a recipe for a nasty headache. You would probably be better off with nothing, like eye covers for sleeping.
A pair of off-the-shelf reading glasses will make everything other than what’s right in front of your face blurry. But please don’t use them to blur distant things you actually will be looking at for long stretches. Your eyes will still try to focus on those blurry distant objects, and that will cause ocular muscle strain. If you did it for a few years, you could cause permanent changes to the shape of your eyeball. Then you will really need glasses.
You really don’t care about your eyesight do you… this will absolutely wreck your eyes.
Its not for chronic use, just for relaxing and zoning out for a little bit, like open eyed meditation
I’m curious if that would be different for simulated blurriness, like if you watch a blurry video, would that be a different story? I feel like that would be different because its not impairing the objective signal or functioning of your normal vision
Like if you have blurry vision, and you don’t wear vision-correcting glasses, does that set off an inevitable downward spiral of degradation of your vision?
Why is worse than closing your eyes, probably super dumb question but might as well iron out my understanding of this while we’re here 🙏
You seem to be stating “absolutely terrible” with no attempt at explaining the underlying mechanism which would cause using blurred glasses to “wreck your eyes”.
Glasses with wrong strength should focus the incoming light wrongly and therefore effectively blur things.
If you can, I’d recommend trying out someone else’s glasses. It can give people headaches when their vision is blurry, because they’ll try to focus their eyes really hard.
Right but i can’t have their glasses and I doubt the insurance company would take too kindly to my endgame here lol
You know what happens to the glasses that used to work, but no longer do because your eyes have changed? People archive them to the bedroom drawer just in case someone like you might one day show up. Ask anyone who wears glasses for an old pair they haven’t worn in the last decade. Usually, you get to choose from several options.
BTW, the headache thing is real, but you’ll learn that soon enough.
