It is only logical
Either he is seeing by some sort of sound or feel of the wind or some other BS
In which case he should be able to detect everything around him even without conventional vision other champions rely on (so he should be able to see into bushes)
or he is actually Blind, and should have no vision at all like Rek'sai
Pick one Riot
Ariel the Cruel7 votesSeeing as Teemo and Valor can actually blind him. I don't think it's the headband does what we've been led to believe.

he was blinded for attention seeking purposes < new theory
Ariel the Cruel3 votesIn the lore: he set himself on fire in protest, which melted his eyes. So that's not really a theory, it's cannon. XD

Indeed, he shot his eyes out of a cannon
Hawkefire3 votesWait...all the lore was retconned.....which means.....Lee Sin might not be blind....
Keevalroy4 votesSo what you're saying is he DID shoot his eyes out of a cannon....wait. That's how he can see everything around him despite being blind. His eyes are orbiting the planet seeing everything he's doing giving him a bird's eye view. This is now part of his lore. Riot hire me please.

Narasimha8 votesTeemo uses a nerve poison, so that affects all the senses. I'm... not sure whats with Valor. And now, I'm kind of scared to find out.
soylent shipment3 votesValor dives in a claws out the eyes of her enemies, blinding them.
Im bad at adc5 votes"Gouge 'em Valor!"
SecretAgentHulk7 votesYou try listening for enemies with a bird clawing at your head. :P
anding6 votesLee Sin is secretly Cyclops from X-Men
Chaotic Reks3 votesthat's what the q is...
SecretAgentHulk4 votesThe grass in the jungle makes too much noise when the wind blows through it, so he can't hear people in there. #NoPrize

I was going to say this.
BlazeRiver3 votesLee Sin can detect anything that moves, it's the summoner who can only see what isn't concealed by the fog of war. Blinds work by shattering his focus, so he cant tell where things are anymore.
Sammystorm3 votesLet anivia and valor fly over walls.
LordOfTheLeague2 votesIt's not about your specific comment, I wonder if Lee sin could be more balanced if he was actually blind (very little vision radius) with a detection feature like Rek'sai and some buffs. Like if every damage he deals would reveal enemies for few seconds and stuff like this.

A reverse Eve vision circle would be an interesting limitation. Not as limiting as Rek'Sai's (but no tremor sense beyond it, either). He can still see enemies marked with his abilities for a few seconds, of course.
It would be an actual weakness, though, and Lee Sin isn't allowed to have weaknesses. Otherwise there might be a reason not to pick him. ~Uiru
