Answer:

Explanation:

In Oedipus the King, Sophocles uses blindness and sight as metaphors. Tiresias a physically blind man has a clearer vision than the king Oedipus. Tiresias states "So, you mock my blindness? Let me tell you this, you with your precious eyes, you’re blind to the corruption of your life, to the house you live in, those you live with” (Sophocles 470-475). Blindness is used as a metaphor for the loss of identity, power, and hope. Meanwhile, a clear vision is used as a metaphor for knowledge and insight. The protagonist Oedipus is "Blind" "You have not the truth. You’re blind. Blind in your eyes. Blind in your ears. Blind in your mind” (Sophocles 40). The truth holds power, a power only those with clear sight can see, in the end, Oedipus’s downfall is his blindness, and he ends up being powerless. ok all good please give brailiest :)
