its not like they had cars to drive before glasses were a thing
Just a lot of dangerous animals. And dangerous humans. No cars though.
Imagine being in a jungle. Just a blur of greens.
It's that a snake or grass? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I was more imagining the current world, but corrective lenses were never invented.
on the bright side we would probably have much better public transit
On the other hand, without the invention of lenses we wouldn't have most of our science and technology. No microscope, no telescope, no microchips, no precision engineering. So many things today are possible only because we could enhance our shitty vision with lenses
