I agree - the scale of items is wrong. An axe can appear relatively small on the ground but when in hand it's huge. The size of things needs to be to the correct scale but there seems to be variation among items.

confirmed - thanks! I was swallowing vitamins and charcoal tabs, eating and drinking and nothing worked. The blurriness was so annoying and affecting my eyes.

The right mouse button click work-around worked for me. I had been running through the woods and stopped to eat a can of sardines and found I couldn't run anymore. Right click fixed me up, thanks.
