Why does he squint with his eyes closed?

My blind friend has his eyelids open all the time.
claudettemonet 1 points 7y ago
He is blind from birth. I think he just got out of the habit of opening them. He opens them in one video, it is crazy how difficult it is for him, cause he never uses those muscles.

Also some blind people's eyes hurt. I mean, blind people are blind for actual medical reasons, many of which are not comfortable.

Light sensitivity is also pretty common. Most blind people can at least detect light and it is pretty common for it to hurt their eyes.

One thing I would like to know is if you have absolutely zero vision, could your eyes still hurt in bright light? That would be weird. u/fastfinge might know.

You can be a total and your eyes can still hurt like hell.
My friend's had glaucoma since she was born and she complains of eye pain because of that.

I complain of eye pain because of lights (and allergies etc, and also if i try to use my eyes for anything), so i'm that annoying person with dark shades on always.

Annoying????!!!! Never! I think the word you were searching for is BADASS!
Unuhi 2 points 7y ago
I'll take that.
The shades also hide pretty well the random moments i'm crying.

Yes...sort of. If I tilt my head back outdoors, and force open my eyes, the sun shining directly into my eyeball will hurt. But that might just be from the heat more than anything else. Also, a dentist once wasn't paying attention (or didn't think she needed to care), and shined one of the dental spotlights they use in your mouth directly into my eye. That did twinge a little.

Directly looking at the sun used to make me sneeze. But maybe not anymore, I haven't done it in years. I should try it sometime soon.
Unuhi 1 points 7y ago
I thought that used to be for temperature change for going outdoors.

Seeing blood used to make me faint.
Ha.
AlliTurna 1 points 7y ago
Like you said, it depends. But mostly no. I was able to sense bright light years ago, but then I totally lost it as well. I never remember being annoyed by light. Neither I've heard something about that from my friends who has no vision.

I know things too, u/claudettemonet ! Not knowing an overrated series is not a valid reason to like me less. 😡

I like how you just keep the the convo going but in a different thread all together! Hahaha 😂
AlliTurna 1 points 7y ago
I'm just trying to avoid getting lynched for not reading/watching it. Only you and I will know this secret! 😉
