Spock was blinded for only a brief period of time in an ST-TOS (Star Trek: The Original Series) episode titled: "Operation: Annihilate!".

The first Star Trek episode was called 'The Cage.' It starred Jeffrey Hunter as Capt. Christopher Pike. The pilot was rejected.

The episode was created in 1966, but did not air until October 1988. Parts of this episode were aired in the original series as flashbacks in the episode 'The Menagerie', which aired in November 1966.

The series was picked up with William Shatner playing the role of Capt. James T. Kirk.

The first episode of what is now referred to as Star Trek TOS (the orignal series) that aired is 'The Man Trap.' It was actually the 5th episode produced.

There was a pilot for Star Trek TOS called 'Where No Man Has Gone Before.' This episode was the first produced, but the 3rd to air as part of the first season of Star Trek in 1966.

The pilot episode of Star Trek: TOS was simply called "The Cage" which had Captain Pike in command rather then Captain Kirk.
