If you are watching the Florida State Seminoles for the first time tonight, you may be drawn to the noticeable squinting from star quarterback Jameis Winston. The squinting comes from Winston refusing to wear his contacts when he plays, so he has to squint enough to see plays being called in from the sideline.

Here is a GIF of Winston’s squint, via SB Nation:

His squinting is enough to give you a headach, and many people have noticed and taken to Twitter to share their thoughts:

Don't understand how Jameis Winston can see downfield if he has to go super squint to see the sideline calls from the middle of the field

I might start a charity to get Jameis Winston LASIK surgery so he doesn’t have to squint to see new plays

One of those boosters need to get Jameis Winston LASIK eye surgery. So he can see better & don't have to squint on the field. #Thankmelater
