    For as long as I can remember, I have been able to voluntarily blur my vision, on command, and un-blur it. Is anyone else in the coffeeroom able to do this, or am I just a freak of nature?

    netazar LOL! I don’t wear glasses, though. I can’t describe how I do it. I just do it! It’s like moving your arm. It’s impossible to explain how you do it. You just do it.

    I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one who can do it. I tell my friends about it, and they either think I’m crazy, or they have no clue what I’m talking about. A friend of mine, who takes everything I say WAY too seriously (never do that, btw), sat for a while making all sorts of insane facial expressions, in an attempt to blur his vision. Oh well.

    One thing this ability is useful for, is if/when I’m in a place where there are halachikally undressed women around, say like Penn Station, or the like. Obviously I don’t rely on it lechatchila, but when I’m already in such a situation, it really helps a lot.

    How come some people know how and some people just don’t?

    I can voluntarily see double (i let one eye drift to the side, like a Picasso subject). When I’m tired and need to read without my glasses on I have to cover one eye because it is too tiring to continuously drag my eyes together to focus on the page.

    Who commands you to do this? Command them to stop.

    What I meant was that I can do it at will, which really means the same thing as “on command.”
