Water seems extremely foggy when entering it with night vision, much more so than in 1.16.5. Water in general seems to be much more foggy than in 1.16.5, but with night vision it makes it much more noticeable.
Note that I play on a fairly large display near myself, so I have the FOV turned up to 80. With the default FOV it appears slightly worse than in the screenshot.
The first screenshot is with night vision, and the second is without. Note that it appears backwards.

Hey! Can you please provide clear reproduction steps? And screenshots of the exact same scene in 1.16, 1.17 and with and without night vision? We've compared the exact same location in different versions, turned night vision on and off, and could not see any difference in fog thickness.
Hello Timur! There are videos that showcase the difference between the underwater fog in 1.16.5 and 1.17+ available on my duplicate report, MC-227976.
In my testing, the fog thickness isn't any different from 1.16, but the change was that the transition from the surface to submerging underwater is foggier than it used to be.
Confirmed in 1.17 per MC-227976.
