* ''Series/TheFlash2014'': Played with. When Barry is temporarily blinded by the VillainOfTheWeek, he wears a pair of sunglasses on his date with Patty to ''hide'' said blindness (and [[SecretIdentity avoid having to explain how it happened]]) rather than indicate it. The glasses also give live video feed to [[MissionControl Cisco]], who [[HilarityEnsues attempts to guide him through the evening via earpiece]]. However, Patty figures out he can't see partway through, prompting Barry to take ''off'' the glasses to show her the truth.

* ''Film/JohnWickChapter4'' plays this straight with newcomer character [[Characters/JohnWickTheHighTable Caine]], with the character's [[MeaningfulName very]] [[StealthPun name]] alluding to one of his weapons of choice; a [[SwordCane cane-sword]] that he also uses as a walking stick. His cane-sword is often [[SwordAndGun wielded alongside a SIG P365 SAS handgun]] modified to have no iron sights whatsoever, given their redundancy. Much like [[Film/RogueOne another blind character]] portrayed by Creator/DonnieYen, his blindness does [[BlindWeaponmaster little to hinder his combat prowess]], through a combination of ingenuity and sheer talent.

This Truth in Televison is very helpful to creating fiction, as an animator doesn't have to draw eyes that aren't looking at anything, and sighted live-action actors playing blind characters can still see while playing the role without it being obvious that their eyes are moving around and focusing on things.
The BlindBlackGuy is prone to wearing sunglasses. Should a character [[ObfuscatingDisability pretend to be blind]], expect them to wear sunglasses as part of the disguise. Might justify SunglassesAtNight. Has nothing to do with BlindWithoutEm.
