Learned that one by sleeping in daily disposable contacts for a while and losing a significant portion of my peripheral vision.

Kind of. This happened to me. My vision was noticeably bad when I was diagnosed with it, but once I started taking care of my eyes, they blood vessels shriveled and shrank, and my vision mostly improved to the point where I didnât notice it anymore.
100% recovered, no. But better.
