I think Abelard might be regaining sight in his right eye! How can I test
it?

On another note, I just learned there are a ton of youtube clips of
lightning strikes. Way cool if you're into them, search youtube for
lightning.

How about using a feather or a string to see if he reacts?  Hope so.  MLB

How to test only one eye?

Trying silently waving a feather or string off to his right side, where it
would be out of sight of his left eye.

You need to put a little pirate patch over this good eye, then test with
moving toys, etc.
Ping Pine Cone for all pirate info.

Thanks Polonca.... It might be wishful thinking on my part, but I can see
his iris so clearly in there....

It's easy to shine a light in a cat's eye to see whether the pupil contracts.
No contraction means no sight.
