Abstract: A Borel set $Bsubsetmathbb{R}^n$ is visible from $xinmathbb{R}^n$, if the radial projection of $B$ with base point $x$ has positive $mathcal{H}^{n-1}$ measure. I prove that if $dimB>n-1$, then $B$ is visible from every point $xinmathbb{R}^{n}setminusE$, where $E$ is an exceptional set with dimension $dimEleq2(n-1)-dimB$. This is the sharp bound for all $ngeq2$. Many parts of the proof were already contained in a recent previous paper by P. Mattila and the author, where a weaker bound for $dimE$ was derived as a corollary from a certain slicing theorem. Here, no improvement to the slicing result is obtained; in brief, the main observation of the present paper is that the proof method gives the optimal result, when applied directly to the visibility problem.
