fresh-eyes

Unbiased initial view

Fresh eyes are the perspective of someone encountering something for the first time, unaffected by familiarity or prior assumptions.

Writers ask colleagues to take a fresh-eyes look at their work, hoping an outsider will spot errors or problems they've become blind to: Let me get fresh eyes on this before we send it out.
