How bad does your vision need to get before you start to notice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Visual loss from refractive (eyeglass) needs is slow so some adaptation is possible. Visual loss from disease and pathology can occur rapidly. If you have rapid loss or reach a point that you struggle to see, then you should visit your ophthalmologist. You will notice depending upon the change and your sensitivity.
