"Anyone who has sense will realize that the possible confusions of the eyes are of two kinds and arise from two causes, either from coming out of the light or from going into the light. This is just as true of the mind's eye as it is of the body's eyes. So remember this the next time that you see someone who seems dazed and whose vision seems confused and don't be too quick to laugh at them. First consider whether the soul of that person has emerged from a brighter light, and is unable to see because it is unaccustomed to the dark, or, having turned from darkness, is dazzled by the light of day."
