My father did as well, he worked at a steel plant, in 1979 a pipe blew and hit him in the eye. He was blinded except he could see light/dark, that's it. The scar was on his macula. He'll be 71 next month and he is saying that he is starting to get some vision back and might see if he can get those scars reduced so he can see again.
