All the filter and special effects on. I love games that look like you are a short sighted with cataracts while wearing goggles smeared with vasoline! AAA console ports are the best!
This reminds me, I tried that Star Wars Respawn game, and they put all the shitty visual effects (depth, motion blur, chromatic aberration) in their own category in the menus.
That shit is literally, LITERALLY just implemented to generate trailers and gameplay marketing videos. I'm pretty sure they intend for you to disable it while actually playing the game.
i have this shit, hardly can see words on my 27 inch tv from 2 meters away, half a meter it's heavily blurred but discernible, for comfortable gaming i need to be staring at it almost point blank. I don't wear glasses because i'd look like total gay in them
myopia (shortsightedness) is when the eye's focal point is in front of the retina like the OP image.
It can be caused by various things including the length of your eyes like in the OP image. But also misshapen Cornea (the eye's lens) or misbehaviour in the cilliary muscle that focuses the eye (ie: the cilliary moves your focal point backwards and forwards.)
The amount of sunlight you get affects how long your eyeballs grow.
>Is it like when the strings on an old pair of sweatpants get too loose?
the ciliary muscle doesn't get loose from starting at a screen, it spasms (tightens up and becomes unable to relax)
Seemingly the optometry industry is trying to force this meme that myopia is caused primarily by long eyeballs and is pretending starting at screens all day has little to no effect.
Your genes do play a role; however, it's more important how you treat your eyes when they're still developing. It may be getting worse day by day, but once your body no longer grows, myopia suddenly stops progressing too.
My father and uncle have myopia, although it's not as severe as mine. Luckily, it stopped when I hit 21, so I got LASIK and haven't been annoyed by wearing contacts and glasses since.
I have this shit, I need to be about 0.4m from my screen to be comfortable, past about 3m it's a struggle to make out anything. Kind of hate the idea of wearing glasses though.
Basically staring too long, in the dark, at the same distance. Most important part in combating this problem is going outside and staring at all the things at differing distances to train your eyes
But how? How does the mechanics of the situation work? Is it like when the strings on an old pair of sweatpants get too loose?
It doesn't happen by screen alone.
Its related to focal lenght vs sharpness from distance.
And the sharpest point is when you are slightly too close, meaning your eye internals slowly get longer and more myopic over time.
Why?
Because your eye is a adjustable lens, where some of the adjustment stays. Endmyopia seem to advocate a change of 0.25 each 3 months to be possible, and noob gains up to 1 diopter in the first 3-6 months.
Childhood vision development is still basically a poorly understood blackbox outside of technical innovations such as dual focus lenses, outdoor/sports affecting the long term outcome, and some fancy Japanese self adjusting glasses.
do they still say it's all genetic?
Because your genetics are the difference between landing in -2, -3 or -4 for the same life condition. Its also why you have continent to continent differences between larger ethnic groups on how bad it develops.
The CCP is currently in a stage where they realize they can't afford to maintain technicians for 50-70% of their population, and have started tossing darts at the board.
I think that's astigmatism or something, basically the focal point is off so instead of seeing " I ", you see "I I". I get the effect sometimes when I've slept poorly, and it can apparently to some degree be fixed with glasses I think.
Myopia literally translates to "short sight", as in you can only see well at short distances. If EVERYTHING is blurry you have something other than myopia going on.
Anyone else ever experienced low frame rate irl?
I remember in high school, if I had to walk through a crowded area my eyes would physically hurt. Like it looked like I would be losing fps.
I've done so much damage to my brain I already have >visual snow >floaters >-8 vision >migraines >vertigo >closed-eye-hallucinations
anmd im not even 30
I could SHIT myopia, myopia aint SHIT, I probably already have it pussy b***h
I had all that before I was 30, too, and now it's basically a non-issue

It's just a matter of lifestyle change, there's even ways to improve your vision naturally, so I've heard.
I use a 75" TV as a PC monitor, because even though I'm getting eyefricked by spending 16 hours a day every day on the internet - my theory is that being forced to sit back 1-2 meters from the screen should hopefully mean my myopia will progress less rapidly or I'll at least have good vision within those 1-2 meters.
It's just a theory but it seems like it makes sense. Do you think a person would develop myopia by spending 16 hours a day at movie theatres? That's a long distance from the screen.
Not videogames
Is this the thread?
no
the thread of the dark soul?
All the filter and special effects on. I love games that look like you are a short sighted with cataracts while wearing goggles smeared with vasoline! AAA console ports are the best!
i usually leave it on to blur out the horrible textures on distant scenery
>UOOOOOOOOOH
Underfrickingrated
Good job mate, got a chuckle out of me.
OK thank you OP, sorry for not getting it the first time
how do i explain i have this to my doctor?
well done
it's usually really subtle in other games
or tied to a mechanic
but I turn it off when playing skyrim
kek
Based
Need correction!!

depth of field: on
motion blur: maximum
anti-aliasing: fxaa

Contact lens are a thing, moron.
wear your glasses gas-anon
Anon's Eye, I'm CIA
uh... you don't get to bring lens
If I pull those lens off, will you go blind?
It would be extremely strainful
you're a big eye
dicky vision on
So how exactly does this shit happen just by staring at a screen all day?
Your eye really likes what you’re seeing so it stretches out to try and fit more of it in there
it all makes sense now...
any eye strain. reading, screens, staying up too long. "screens frick up your eyes" is actually "you spend too long staring at tiny shit in the dark"
But how? How does the mechanics of the situation work? Is it like when the strings on an old pair of sweatpants get too loose?

I've done all of these most of my life lol

>suddenly
Everything in the background gets a bokeh effect when you focus gay, stop trying to gaslight me
What's wrong with my eyes?
>Sh-she's fast!

Myopic eye is supposed to see EVERYTHING as a blur
Myopia literally translates to "short sight", as in you can only see well at short distances. If EVERYTHING is blurry you have something other than myopia going on.
I have this and astigmatism
I remember when I was a kid I could read small text on my PC while lying down on my bed.

i need glasses to see the computer screen
lol same
anything more than like 2 feet away from me is a blurry mess
I've done so much damage to my brain I already have

drugs are bad mmkay?
try being sober

mind telling us more about those ways to improve eyesight?
damn brats
Damn myopic eye ! Needs correction !

Off, because I have good enough hardware that lets me increase the distant LoD so I don't need to hide it
