i am pretty good at lucid dreaming i think or i am having OBEs and getting them confused. But my question is when i become lucid or when i get out my body whatever it is. I can't seem to see like my vision is really bad i can hardly see but i don't get scared tho like at some points i think I'm blind. Does anyone have any ideas on why my vision is screwed up. thanks in advance

As Enochian said.
Also, simply practice and experience will help. It's not too uncommon to have VERY "blurry" or vague vision to begin with When I started AP'ing (after the imaginative period), I was very visually confused and would often find myself in a "dark" state. Not really a light or non-light, more of a fade in and out of "visual" cues. It gets better.

OBEs and LCDs are experienced so similarly that any more I differentiate between them only by how I achieve them. That is one technique achieves OBEs and another achieves LCDs.
I've had some dreams that were blurred and where I even felt intoxicated. What I do is focus on something basic and work my way up. So I'm in my dream I hold my hands up to my face to see them then put them down to my sides then look down to see my body then the ground then follow the floor to the walls or trees or whatever other surroundings there are. Eventually building up to entire scenery.
Other than that I can only reitterate practice practice.

Just to clarify on what acid said. Unless you have done it for a long time DO NOT STARE. It will only make matters worse. From a shamanic view point this is progressing to and through the third gate. At that time it will be more like takeing a still photo of an area.

The Astral body, unlike the other senses, doesn't rely on the physical sense of sight, and thats one of the reasons you have 360 degrees of vision while projecting. So don't try and "open" your eyes, just calmly and willfully will yourself to see. If that method doesnt work, try giving a suggestion, like "Vision now!" or something of the like.

Used to happen to me all the time. My vision would blur or else all I could see was white. It even happens to me in regular dreams. Either I feel the sun shining in my eyes and blinding me or else I have shit stuck in my eyes which blurs my vision.
