Wow, I guess this won't present an issue at all, then. Thanks a bunch!
How would a blind person fill out the application?

Fact is, no one at the Sheriff's office is going to know you are blind in one eye.

My younger sister (11y/o) lost her right eye about 7 months ago in a pool accident. She had some pretty great surgery, and a prosthetic that connects to the muscles in her eye, so that the false eye actually moves when her other eye does. It's not perfect yet, as the muscles are still adapting, but no one notices it. At most people might think she has a bit of a lazy eye.

Point being, no one is going to notice, and I don't think they can check your medical records (if you even have any).
