* Downplayed and PlayedForDrama in ''VisualNovel/NineHoursNinePersonsNineDoors'' regarding Snake, who although was rendered blind after an accident, he had honed his senses enough to recognise others by voice and can competently move around on his own. The one time his blindness screws him over in the plot is [[spoiler:him failing to recognise Santa as Aoi Kurashiki since he was going through puberty when they met during the first Nonary Game 9 years ago and wasn't able to connect the voices together, which would've screwed up Zero's plans if he managed to put two and two together.]]

* There's also a wealth of commercials coming from Executive Optical, a Philippine optician chain, that demonstrates how poor eyesight can ruin someone's day. A barber botching a kid's haircut, a dog barber botching a pooch's shaving job, a dentist failing to get a kid's tooth extracted, a cupid missing his shots, a man misreading his girlfriend Ruby's name as Rudy, a senior citizen struggling to find his name on the voters' list during the elections, a woman who mistakenly inserts her driver's license into an ATM, a driver who can't read traffic signs (which then leads to an accident), a man who slips on the floor because he overlooked the "wet floor" sign, and a granny who gets cake all over her husband's face are some of the examples.

* The children's magazine ''Cricket'' included a comic strip in its lower margins, featuring the titular Cricket and his numerous bug, snail, and worm friends. Among these friends was an ''extremely'' near-sighted shrew, who long believed the others to be puppies, kittens, ducklings and the like: a BlindMistake Cricket and his invertebrate pals played along with, since normally a shrew would gobble up the lot of them.
