His sight is what Oedipus sacrifices in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban King Oedipus comes to the realization that he is not who he thinks he is. He knows that this prophesied fate as his father's killer and his mother's husband holds true. He realizes that the facts of his life are right in his face and decides to sacrifice his faulty vision for a hopefully more insightful sightless existence.
