It works for me. We fail to notice that everything we are not focusing on directly is blurred and yet the inner mind is still has a clear idea of what is its seeing. It's only when we turn to look at it directly that we see it 'in focus'. So it stands to reason that the mind can recognise the letters on a page without our having to look at them directly. Especially when you consider how often we see the written letter forms in our daily lives.
