blindingly

With searing intensity

Blindingly intensifies adjectives to an extreme degree, suggesting something so powerful it could overwhelm the senses: blindingly bright, blindingly fast, blindingly obvious.

The word implies you almost can't perceive or process what you're encountering—it's too intense, too clear, too much.
