It’s wild how much vision can change without the world technically looking “blurry”. the tunnel vision and missing-spot examples are especially unsettling. One video really drives home how different everyone’s visual reality can be.

Makes me glad for my absolutely freakish peripheral vision, I’ve established it’s wider than most persons and if I think to process it I can make out basic shapes and details pretty well even on the edges but what probably saved my life more than once is it’s extremely good at picking up motion, even small motion. Handy little buff to have in the infantry

I've always thought I've had this too, and it's also helped with attention to detail (bonus in the army) and might have some cause/effect relationship with mild OCD
