He blinded himself.
However, after he blinded and exiled himself, he wandered throughout the land with his daughter, Antigone, looking for somewhere to die. This part of Oedipus' story is in the book called "Oedipus at Colonus". Oedipus, led by his daughter Antigone, wanders into the town of Colonus where they are met by a villager who tells them that they should leave, as the town is scared by Furies. Oedipus sees this as a sign, as he killed his Father and married his Mother, which were perfect reasons for the Furies to attack Oedipus. Ismene, another daughter of Oedipus, arrives on horse and tells both Antigone and Oedipus of Polynices and Eteocles, and Polynices goal of attacking Thebes. The brothers have heard from Apollo that their outcomes depend on where their Father is buried, however, Oedipus curses both his sons and choses to be buried at Colonus. Creon, who wants Oedipus to be buried at Thebes, steals Antigone away from Oedipus in an attempt to get him to follow. Oedipus gets a message from Polynices, telling him to meet him at the Temple of Poseidon, and Ploynices tells Oedipus that he has been banished from Thebes by his own brother, and intends to attack. He begs Oedipus to lift the curse that he put on him and his brother, but Oedipus says that they deserve their fate for casting their Father out. Polynices exits, in a blind rage. Oedipus reads the thunderstorm, that has broken out, Zeus thinks it is time for Oedipus to die. Then Oedipus dies, which is the tragic end to a tragic story. This story is then followed by "Antigone" which is the outcome of Polynices and Eteocles fight and the death of the entire family.
