Doing something easily.
زمینه فرهنگی
In traditional Italian workshops (botteghe), apprentices were expected to learn the 'feel' of materials. A master leatherworker in Florence might say they can judge quality 'a occhi bendati' to emphasize their tactile expertise. Food is a primary domain for this idiom. Italians take great pride in knowing family recipes by heart. Using this phrase about a recipe is a high compliment to one's upbringing and culinary skill. In ancient, labyrinthine cities like Venice or Naples, knowing the shortcuts is a sign of being a 'vero' (true) local. Saying you can navigate them 'a occhi bendati' is a common way to assert local identity. Coined in the 16th century, 'sprezzatura' is the art of making difficult things look easy. 'A occhi bendati' is the modern linguistic descendant of this cultural ideal.
Use it for confidence
If you want to impress an Italian with your confidence, use 'bendati' instead of 'chiusi'. It sounds more 'pro'.
Watch the preposition
Never say 'con gli occhi bendati' in this idiomatic sense; it sounds too literal, like you're in a movie scene.
