Would you still be able to see it if you intentionally blurred your vision? 
Sure, because the blur makes it bigger, not smaller.

The question is whether you can tell two lights on the same pole apart.

You can see stars that are millions (or more) light years away. That doesn't 
mean you can tell whether it's a binary star or not.
