Eyesight: I did try wandering around at an event for a weekend without 
visual correction, once. (For reference, I'm horrifyingly myopic (over 8
diopters) but not astigmatic. I wear contact lenses.) I could handle being
led around, to a certain extent, but when I slammed into a tent peg and
wound up with a swollen knee, I gave up. My problem is that without 
correction, I am largely blind, but I don't have the instincts and 
coping strategies that the truly blind have, since I spend almost all of
my time with basically normal vision. I think I'm better of with my basically-
unobtrusive-but-vastly-modern contact lenses.
