Poor CSF makes it difficult for people to drive, read, and perform a variety of other functions. CSF isn’t a matter of how clearly you see things; instead, it’s related to the brightness perception of your vision, and is based on both the capabilities of our eyes and the neural components that interpret what they perceive.
