There's a theory about that Doflamingo wears his iconic glasses because he's
blind to his (IIRC) left eye. It was assumed because whenever his eyes were
shown (quite rarely), it was actully always only the left one.

Is there anything we can know about it in canon? Any kind of disease of injury
that would possibly, even theoretically justify it?

question
one-piece
Is Doflamingo blind in one eye?


I guess i can assume that it is somehow of a correct theory, since in
Doflamingo's past (as a little kid) you could see an arrow heading his way in
the reflection of his sunglasses, as if they were heading for his left eye.
But if it even struck him is unknown.

This theory is based on the glimpses of Doffy's childhood we get. While strung
up one of the methods of torture mentioned involved blinding someone. The next
panel shows an arrow being shot towards Doflamingo. We then suddenly get an
image of two eyes as he wakes up, one without shades and one with shades with
a reflection of fire in them.

But note that Doffy's eyes are covered with cloth while he's strung up. So
that may not be his shades at all, but a symbolic representation. Considering
his next action is to remove his shades, while clearly in distress, it's
theorized that arrow hit it's mark and Doffy lost an eye that day.
