Being able to see properly

immediately go blind

You're immediately taking the argument to the extreme. You won't immediately go blind, but it will damage your retina in ways you sometimes don't notice because the brain compensates for it. It happened to my uncle when he was a welder, he had a second blind spot where he couldn't see sharply, but it didn't really affect his quality of life.
