We see a blurry mess underwater because of the particulates in the water. Fish don’t see a blurry mess when they look through air.
People being clueless is not my worry.

…so what happens when you use goggles? Or a camera?
Lakes can be dirty, but you can see the same thing in a pool. Or your bathtub.

“Same effect” what effect? This entire thread is confused. H2O has no impact on our vision. The gaseous atmosphere also has no effect on fish’s vision. Why the hell would either of these solutions affect vision? They’re invisible.
This entire thread is confused. What makes it difficult for land dwellers to see underwater also affects those animals that live underwater. The particulates and lack of light.
There is absolutely zero scientific basis for any of the ideas you’re offering.

Go dunk your head! Seriously, you can see the effect in a pool - look at how well you can see things above and below the surface, go underwater, and open your eyes. Things will be fuzzier.
You’re trying to reason away an effect that people actually see, and that you can verify independently. That’s the opposite of how science works.
For a scientific explanation, my first Google got came up with this - an article about some kids who do seem to see normally underwater. It also includes this explanation for our blurrier experience:

You’re certainly confident

Arrogant, even.
