Has anyone ever caught a BLIND striped bass?

[Grampa Greg]

Hi guys CT surfcaster here. Just wanted to say hi and start an interesting thread...

I was speaking to a seemingly knowledgeable gentleman at the Rivers End Tackle Surf Show. We were speaking about striped bass vision. He told me he "knows" that vision doesn't play much of a part in their ability to hunt. I disagree... but in any event he told me of a bass he caught that was completely blind. BOTH eyes were apparently scarred over. Has anyone experienced this as well? Better yet does someone have pictures of this or know someone with a picture of this? I don't mean one bad eye or partially scarred corneas... I mean both eyes completely missing, scarred over or completely opacified (so light could not enter the interior of the eye). I think this is an interesting topic to discuss.

Thanks Guys.
