d = r/sinΘ

Human FoV is about 210° with both eyes. Thus Θ is 105°.

The radius of the sun is 695,508 km.

Thus, d is 695,508/sin(105) → 720,043 km

720,043 - 695,508 = 24535 km away from the surface of the sun.

However, because the FoV is greater than 180°, this is actually below the surface of the sun, and any distance below the surface is enough to fill your vision.

To completely fill your field of view with the Sun, you’ll need to take a Parker Bath and dip into the sun.
