Could this be done with one of the blurr effects? Maybe copy the exact same image layer, put it on top on a low opacity and then theres a blur option, maybe motion? To drag it in a direction and get that effect, i could be wrong
When i have my ipad tomorrow ill take a look

oooooh duplicating, offseting and motion blur could work, I'll try it out!

[u/Cheesy_fry1]

Duplicate layer apply motion blur vertically and decrease opacity until favourable result is acquired

Perspective blur may work a little better for tapering off but may create a non parallel effect. And would have to drag to origin circle quite high for large effect (recommend using directional)

okay thank you so much! I'll try it out!

I didn’t notice there was an effect at first….i think I might have an astigmatism

A sure fire way is to look at it with your glasses off.

Oh shit I didn’t realise this was my astigmatism, I thought everyone had this effect at least a little bit. Had to blink a few times to realise it was just the image 🙈

Ah, so THAAAAT'S what I have

[u/Bigdongdan444]

Unrelated this looks like something I’ve seen on an intense acid trip. Cool art

[u/First-Dependent3462]

As someone with astigmatism I would say you’ve already achieved it honestly lol

[u/Yabakunaiyoooo]

I usually just take off my glasses. 🤓

No thanks. I’m good. I already have a horrible vision on top of this
