Blindness

Blindness is a status effect that impairs the player's vision.

Effect
Blindness impairs the player's vision as if a thick black fog were surrounding them, with only the immediate area being visible (this means that only a few blocks directly around the player are visible to them). However, the sun and moon can be seen as normal. Additionally, liquids do not fade into the fog perfectly. The effect also prevents sprinting and the ability to inflict critical hits. If combined with Night Vision, the screen appears completely black aside from the sun and moon. In Java Edition 1.16, combining with night visions renders the HUD text black (this also happens on the title screen). In Bedrock Edition, it adjust correctly, it keeps the black fog, and renders the visible area buffed with night vision.

The effect can be cured by drinking milk. $$ when education options are enabled, drinking eye drops also cures blindness.
