After Seishirou dies, Fuuma gives Subaru Seishirou's remaining eye to replace the eye Subaru had lost; Seishirou had been jealous and upset that Fuuma had hurt Subaru, and wanted to give Subaru his eye to erase the scar Fuuma had left on Subaru.

The right Eye is to be, what I was told a long time ago, a gate way to ones soul, and the seer of truth, the left eye is to be that of the heart and streangth of a person.

Also found this:

The right eye - the eye of buddhi, of wisdom and of vision.
The left eye - the eye of mind, of the common sense and of sight.

Hope this helps

Well if all signs point to Seishirou, in either X or TRC, Subaru will fell some guilt for him losing his eye to save him/ or try to find him, for which the Subaru of TB/X did, so it might be possable that Subaru of TRC might be missing his right eye as well?

Confused? Very...

And I wanted to know another thing about Syaoran's eye, I wonder how he lost it?

Has he got no sight in it? The anime made it seem as though it was weakened not completely gone, or so I thought. They only notice when he's fighting not any other time and you would have thought they would notice at other times as well if he was completely blind in that eye. What does it say in the manga about it?

syaoran has no depth perception. Kuro said it in both manga and anime., tho in manga he said alot more that makes it seem he;s blind. "you didnt notice when the [ryoban's son] grabbed the princess. you only noticed when he had intended to hurt her, you noticed his murderous aura" or something like that.

also, the latest chapter delves that (pardon the pun) theres more than meets the eye with syaoran.

If our syoran is blind in right eye that could sorta mean that he lost the gateway to his soul, and wisdon and vision......
 So the evil Syoaran does not have the left eye, the heart and strength of the person and also the eye of the mind commmon sense and sight!!!!!
                :dontknow:   It sorta makes sense if you think about it long enough.... I guess. :confused2:

    Art teacher(with german/french accent)" NO!!! No Anime eyes! I hate them! Make recular eyes on your kite!"
Me: Grumble....Grumble.... Art Teach:" What was that!?" Me: "Nothing..."
        ~ When kite is done~
Friend:" thats anime eyes on your kite, Kelley." Me: " You know that, I know that, But she doesn't!"
 ~ this happens alot at my school~

Whoawhoawhoa! Hey! Yeah!

Syaoran lost his memories, didn't he? He doesn't remember anything since Fujitaka...so it's like he lost his vision and a part of his soul...

And...who knows about Evil!Syaoran? But...he's been in a test tube for a while...or whatever that tube was. Hardly a way to live life as a person.
