What do you think your life would be like if you have no eyeballs?

Let us close or blindfold both of our eyes. Remember, for safety reason, you must be under the supervision of an adult to play this out.

 Can you still play your games?

 I am sure your life will be totally different without your eyeballs! But if you are thinking of trying any of the activities blind-folded, please make sure somebody is supervising over you for safety reason.
