Definition
In a manner so bright or intense as to cause blindness or prevent clear vision; obviously or extremely.
Etymology
From 'blinding' (the present participle of 'blind,' meaning to make blind) plus '-ly.' The word evolved to describe things so intensely bright or obvious they overwhelm perception.
Kelly Says
Here's something cool: 'blindingly' is used most often not for physical light, but for obvious truths. We say something is 'blindingly obvious,' meaning it's so clear no one should miss it—the opposite of what the word literally means! Language is full of these reversals.
