It goes without saying that everyone sees the world differently—but this is also true in the physical sense. According to the World Health Organization, at least 2.2 billion people have a near or distance visual impairment, meaning that about one-third of the world experiences eye conditions.
How your surroundings look to you might vastly differ from your neighbors. To raise awareness and bring perspective about some of the world’s most common eye conditions, Lenstore has presented interactive 360-degree images depicting global tourist attractions in the eyes of people with color deficiency, glaucoma, night blindness, tunnel vision, eye floaters, macular degeneration, and cataracts.
While it is a dream of many to have perfect vision, the interactive view invites you to explore hotspots of Paris, Venice, London, Hong Kong, Dubai, New York, and Sydney in a more diverse lenscape, for lack of a better word.
Preview some images below and explore the tool yourself here. They are indeed a real eye-opener.
