The phrase 'clear vision' combines 'clear' (from Old French cler, from Latin clarus 'clear, bright') and 'vision' (from Old French vision, from Latin visio 'act of seeing, sight'). Both words have ancient roots, with 'clear' referring to distinctness and 'vision' to the act or faculty of seeing, or a mental image or understanding. The combination thus refers to both literal and figurative clarity of sight or understanding, implying a distinct and unimpeded perception or comprehension.
