Not sure where to post this, but does anyone else ever "practice" being blind because you just want to give your eyes a break, but you're not tired? I want to do things, I just want my eyes closed... (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I had laser surgery done on my eyes in 2016 and this is one of the things I really miss: being able to take off my glasses and see the world turn into fuzzy shapes and motion instead of fine details to concentrate on. It could be relaxing, as long as I was somewhere familiar enough to navigate.

Interesting, I normally don't wear my glasses at all unless I leave the house. But I wonder if I've always done that because the lack of focus helps me relax. Very interesting thought, thank you!
