1. An eye in which the iris is of a very light gray or
whitish color; -- said usually of horses. --Booth.

crystalline humor of the eye; glaucoma." But glaucoma
is not a disease of the crystalline humor, nor is
wall-eye a disease at all, but merely a natural
blemish. --Tully. In the north of England, as Brockett
states, persons are said to be wall-eyed when the white
of the eye is very large and distorted, or on one side.

Wall-eyed (gcide) | Wall-eyed \Wall"-eyed`\, a. [Icel. valdeyg[eth]r, or vagleygr;

roost, a perch, a sty in the eye) + eygr having eyes (from
auga eye). See Eye.]

Note: Shakespeare, in using wall-eyed as a term of reproach
(as "wall-eyed rage," a "wall-eyed wretch"), alludes
probably to the idea of unnatural or distorted vision.
See the Note under Wall-eye. It is an eye which is
utterly and incurably perverted, an eye that knows no
pity.
