Thanks for that 😊 Got it!

I meant the sharpness as well as the depth perception by the brain

I'm totally perplexed now

So, both of the wavefronts would appear the same depending on whether our eye is focused or not... Is that so?

So what's the right answer??

But basically, here we are focusing on the scenario where both the objects under consideration (star and LED) will be our centre of attention (at one moment, one object and at the next moment, the next one)... Taking that into account my assertion is still relevant, ain't it?

Yeah that's true. I've experimented with that thing a lot since my childhood.

Okay thank you so much everyone. Now i have understood where you all are getting at. A mistake that I did from my side was assuming that the LED was beyond our 'near distance' (that counts as a few centimetres too I guess) which led me to think that both of the lights (from LED as well as the...

Wouldn't both of them appear blurry? I mean, we can't see individual light rays. Do you mean in any other way?

Aha! So that leads to the observation that all forms of wavefronts look akin to us.

Okay. Thanks for your former clarification :) Regarding the questions asked in the latter section, If I look at an LED and star, they both look alike. The light from both sources appear the same. Now talking about their wavefronts, LED has a spherical one since it's just centimetres away from...

So basically you're trying to convey that all of it will look the same to our eyes... Just as light... Right?

I learnt that wavefronts can be spherical, cylindrical or planar. But i wonder, if one were to observe light waves of different wavefronts with naked eyes, how would they appear? Would they appear all the same or would there be any difference in how we see them? Just a basic question that I felt...
