Abacination, or to abacinate, is the act of blinding someone by placing a very hot metallic (often copper) basin close to their eyes.Blinding someone in this way was a form of torture during the ancient times, especially in Ancient Persia.Typically, a pair of red-hot metal cups, which often also contained corrosive agents such as slaked lime, were strapped to the eyes of the victim, or a red-hot metal plate was held close to the victim's eyes. The heat (and corrosive chemical if one has been included) very slowly and painfully destroys the victim's eyesight.
