Obviously they should have worked on upgrading our eyes before doing that /s

actually true, there are people with above 20/20 vision and 8k tv would be like us going from 1080p to 4k to them. We should upgrade everyone's vision to beyond 20/20 that would be a net benefit for everyone! Then we can all enjoy 8k tv. But honestly as a glasses wearer, the main benefit of 8k tvs are that you can go up to the tv to see way more details. It's quite amazing and underrated, if you do the same to a same size 4k tv you can notice the pixels like a 1080p tv.
