Meh, you can't really see the sun, it's mostly just an undefined and incredibly bright blob in your peripheral vision. You can't see any shapes in it other than "circle". If you caught a glimpse of the recent partial solar eclipse in Europe, even when 80% was covered by the moon, it still looked like a perfect circle to the naked eye.
