I'm up to date in the _One Piece_ anime but not in the manga, is there any
information about Zoro's closed eye? Can't he open it because of his scar
there, or maybe he is hiding his real power withholding his one eye closed?
How did he get his scar? Maybe in a final training fight with Mihawk?

Is there any information about his scar on his eye?

What's the deal with Roronoa Zoro's eye after the timeskip?


Still, nothing has been revealed if Zoro has some special power in his eye due
to which he's keeping it closed. All that's been shown till now is that the
scar has greatly injured his eye due to which he cannot open it. [The
wiki](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Roronoa_Zoro#After_the_Timeskip) says
the same thing:

> During and after the two-year timeskip, Zoro gains a new scar running down
> over his left eye, which is now implied to be critically injured as it is
> always closed.

Yet, Eichiiro sensei hasn't really revealed all of the Strawhat Crew's power,
so we can't say anything. So for now, we have only this much information about
his eye. Nothing has been shown on how he got it.

Zoro hasn't shown a MASSIVE change in power after the time skip, at least not
as much a Sanji, so he might have something powerful he is gonna use from his
eye but it's most likely just a scar from training!

Gathering the info I could collect with my observation so far in One Piece
anime:

Most of the famous swordsmen have injuries on their eyes. Ex: Admiral Ishou,
Dark King Silver Rayleigh,

Perhaps It looks like it's considered as an ability of Swordsman to sense the
things/people around. Zoro always thrived to learn this technique and
succeeded too.

On the otherhand it looks like it's (Kenbunshoku Haki) considered an ultimate
ability of swordsman to fight without using Sight sense. So losing sight might
be A KEY to AWAKEN ultimate Swordsman powers. Zoro might have intentionally
cut his left eye to awake this ability.  
Or he might be still training with his left eye closed. Might open when time
comes.

But like other OP fans, I wish to see something special out this.
