So I lost one to Volo and the other was taken by Ethel. So basically I am now legally blind. Hope this does not become a trend and by the time I reach the end of a game I will have no body parts left to mutilate and will not look like someone who escaped from Cyberpunk
I have yet to be mutilated in any way (aside from snorting tadpoles like it's going out of style :P). Perhaps, making deals with malevolent fey and letting Volo of all people perform surgery are... questionable choices for your health. :P
Considering the number of high level spellcasters bumming around Faerun, I feel like it shouldn't be that hard for a sufficiently wealthy character to fix the one Volo mutilated. Wait time for an appointment would be the biggest issue, since there are surely more rich people trying to hire advanced clerics than they have spell slots. If your character survives the game, I think you can assume they get it fixed eventually.
The hag-eye is probably hag-eyed forever, barring wishes. I assume all the less extreme methods of fixing it would result in the replacement becoming hag-eyed as well.
What happens? Does the game actually accommodate for being blind? Or does it just carry on like nothing has happened.
Without a particular item... would you character actually be blind!? Is that a scenario that's possible? And if so, does anyone know what happens? Do you get a debuff? is it just cosmetic if at all?
Since you're asking, here's your answer. If someone don't want the spoiler don't click it.

f you go through with Volo's eye "surgery", your right eye gets replaced (after a rather comically gruesome scene) with a blue-green human eye. In early access this gave you a debuff to one stat and a buff to Charisma. They changed this though so now (as far as I know) there is no debuff, but it gives you the ability to permanently see invisible up to 9 metres away.
Speaking of the PC's eyes... I'm kinda upset I couldn't change my eye color at character creation. IDK if I missed it or it just wasn't an option for my race (dragonborn). They look cool being flames, but they're blue and I'd rather them be gold or green.
