purblind

Etymology
The is derived from, possibly from ,  (ultimately from ; influenced by )  +  (ultimately from ).

(“completely blind”) was the original sense. The senses denoting partial blindness are possibly the result of confusion of the first element pur- with, perhaps through. (Compare regarding  versus .)

The and  are derived from the adjective.
