      Film grain was mostly a joke. When your lenses get dirty, it does look like film grain is everywhere.

      Chromatic aberration, definitely. The middle of the lens is typically clear, but anything off-center gets shifted a bit, the stronger the lenses, the more noticeable it gets.

        Yep. I eventually realized the car headlights don’t actually have a blue LED dot included in them…my glasses and/or crappy eyes are doing something funny that splits out a blue dot.

        Let me tell you about optical migraines, it’s like having a built in etch a sketch overlay onto your vision.

        The first time it happens you shit bricks wondering if you’re having a heart attack at like 20. Good times on top of lensflare astigmatism you end up like a personal biological photoshop to real life.
