Is it normal if you stare at something - things seem to vanish?

As in you you stare/zone out looking at something, do things/ objects in your peripheral vision seem to kind of vanish a bit? Especially things like wires etc?'

Give it a go, state at something for a while and see if any of this happens!

    Yes, it's called focus. Seriously, I'm not being sarcastic. This is a natural thing. When you focus on something, all else seems to vanish. This is simply because your brain is filtering out what it considers superfluous.

    No, when I zone out everything comes into focus, even my hearing.
