    What about astigmatism? Second class eye issue? The balls would look like eggs. Source: all circles I see look like eggs.

      I must have far more minor astigmatisms than you, all I have is difficulty focusing and the massive bright lights at night bloom thing.

        Yeah, that’s about right. When I look at the moon, there’s a second slightly dimmer moon above it that overlaps by about a third. Lights at night are a cluster fuck; I can’t tell a low bed trailer from a standard box trailer. The doubling of the tail lights on a low bed look like the second set of upper lights on a box trailer. I have a hard time focusing in low light. Also, my brain can’t render 3D without my glasses.

      I think you have something else… i also have astigmatism, but circles don’t look like eggs, with or without glasses.

      My glasses are really thick to make up for my astigmatism, and it makes the world look a bit convex. Eventually, my brain got used to that, but when I switch to contacts I have a good day or two where everything looks concave (first time I thought my phone screen had finally been sat on one too many times) until my brain reverts back. IDK if i’ve ever noticed circles looking like eggs, but then again I rarely am looking at circles with my naked eyes and maybe my brain is fixing it for me anyway?
