Picky, indeed.
Some people with cortical blindness and perceive (a phenomenon of consciousness) nothing visually, but their eyes work fine, and even nerve centers between the eye and the visual cortex, giving them "blindsight".
These folks, walking down a hallway without using their cane, spontaneously avoid obstructions on the floor, without even realizing they are doing so.
