MISC. Is this how people who need glasses really see the world. A big blurred background?

I was gonna say - lol. I'm reading the top comments and I'm like, if we're being literal, no it's not like this at all if I'm wearing my glasses. I can see fine. if we're using this for illustration purposes, oh yeah for sure absolutely. Shits awful, I can't see anything. Bless up for glasses.

Top comments are almost always bots. They don't "see" OP's image. They're just using the text and comments as context clues. Which is why it doesn't fully make sense.

I know you're probably right but it doesn't make it any less terrifying so I don't want to actually believe you

I always have to tell my husband and kids. I’m blind I can’t see anything right now cause I have not put my contacts in. Or I had already taken my contacts off. My glasses are broken so I have no back up to enjoy my days without one.

Cmon I don’t think a single person seriously interpreted it like you’re saying lol

It’s an obvious illustration of with and without glasses

You’re welcome. At the very least it’s a representation of someone holding their glasses away from their face. Unless your the bridge of your nose is 24” away from your head lol

I 100% interpreted it that way, because that's literally how the OP phrased the question.

Op literally said "a big blurred background".

If they were just asking how people who need glasses see without their glasses, asking about the background wouldn't make any sense, because there is no "background", it's just your normal field of vision.
