No Blind
by CardeJIbka
Players who find the Blindness and Darkness effects hard to see through can use No Blind, a client-side Fabric and NeoForge utility that removes those screen overlays.
What it does
No Blind stops the client from drawing the visual overlays of the Blindness and Darkness status effects. Blindness no longer covers the view with a fog ring around the player, and Darkness no longer pulses a dimming layer over the screen, so the view stays clear. Other vanilla fog, such as biome fog and render distance limits, is left as it is.
The mod only changes what the client shows. The status effects still run on the server, so a player who is blinded still cannot sprint. Because the mod is a lightweight client-side change, it does not alter gameplay, and it can be added to a world or server without any change on the server side.
Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge across 17 release versions. The latest Fabric and NeoForge builds are both 1.0.0 for 26.3. No Blind is released under the MIT License and is open source.
Key features
Blindness fog removed
The fog ring that Blindness draws around the player is no longer rendered on the client.
Darkness overlay removed
The pulsing screen-dimming overlay caused by Darkness, including the one from the Deep Dark, is hidden so the screen stays bright.
Vanilla fog left intact
Biome fog and render distance limits keep their normal behavior, so only the effect overlays are changed.
Effects still apply
Status effects continue to run on the server, so gameplay limits such as the inability to sprint remain in place.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want to keep the screen readable while Blindness or Darkness is active. Server owners who run a modded client setup may also use it, since the mod does not change the server.
