blurredness
Out of focus
Blurredness is the quality of being blurry or indistinct.
The term appears in technical contexts—photography, optics, vision science—where blur must be measured or compared: The blurredness of the image increased with distance from the focal point.
In everyday speech, blurriness is more common.
