Kojiro Inugami I only said that to stress the fact that it was weird that Ichi apparently doesn't know that perfect vision means exactly what it means to anyone who's ever said it in the history of ever.
Don't judge me! I've never heard anyone say, "Perfect Vision" I've only ever heard, 20/20, or terrible vision... perfect is so loosely used, the word's effectiveness is pointless anymore. No one has any idea of what "perfect" actually is. For a human, that's normal vision, not perfect. For a hawk, it would be terrible vision. kthnxbai.

Yes, and when speaking of a hawk that has the ideal vision for it's species, we'd refer to it as perfect vision. But hawks are irrelevant since that guy was talking about Azrael, a human-based Shinigami, having perfect vision by human standards.

Neh, I wasn't saying he had hawk eyes, just making a comparison. If someone had perfect vision IMO, would be able to see at the molecular level. It's like, why do we need telescopes and microscopes if our "20/20" vision is perfect? http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003396.htm For example, 20/20 is considered normal. 20/40 indicates that the line you correctly read at 20 feet away can be read by a person with normal vision from 40 feet away. Yes, that is a government website and not wikipedia, thank you. But let's see what good ol' wiki says. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity 20/20 or 6/6 vision can be considered nominal performance for human distance vision; 20/40 or 6/12 vision can be considered half that acuity for distance vision and 20/10 or 6/3 vision would be twice normal acuity. [2] The 20/x number does not directly relate to the eyeglass prescription required to correct vision, because it does not specify the nature of the problem corrected by the lens, only the resulting performance. Instead an eye exam seeks to find the prescription that will provide at least 20/20 or 6/6 vision.[citation needed] However, some attempt has been made to provide an approximate conversion between an eyeglass prescription and the 20/x system.[3] ~~~~ A visual acuity of 20/20 is frequently described as meaning that a person can see detail from 20 feet away the same as a person with normal eyesight would see from 20 feet. If a person has a visual acuity of 20/40, he is said to see detail from 20 feet away the same as a person with normal eyesight would see it from 40 feet away. It is possible to have vision superior to 20/20: the maximum acuity of the human eye without visual aids (such as binoculars) is generally thought to be around 20/10 (6/3) however, recent test subjects have exceeded 20/8 vision.[7] Some birds of prey, such as hawks, are believed to have an acuity of around 20/2;[8] in this respect, their vision is much better than human eyesight. Was all this necessarily? Probably not, but I'm a stickler about accuracy of explanation; especially when it comes to the physiological. Blame my medical health classes and my recent psychology class.

 It's a turn of phrase meant to be taken at face value, not scrutinized with the implications of the word perfect! My wife is the most technical/literal person I know and you're giving me a headache.

This is a superfluous conversation brought about by a weird, seemingly impossible-to-have, misunderstanding of a phrase that has been tossed around since before I was born.
I didn't think it was possible to argue about something so mundane. >.>
