Hey now there's nothing weird about being completely unable to focus under fluorescent lights.
For me it can be the opposite, I often focus better with artificial light than with sunlight.
me and a friend were talking recently about how we function better at night and summer takes that away. so, a few days ago I covered my window with a blanket which blacked out the window, and use only my lava lamp for light. it has been the most productive, multitasking filled era for me so far.

It's supposed to be common that people can catch the flicker in the corner of their eye
