Corrected entry: Didn't anyone else notice that his eyes were perfectly fine and brown? If he was blind the whole time (and in the end his eyes were white), why are his eyes brown when we takes off his shades and looks out the window and look up at the sun? Doesn't make sense.

Correction: He is blind but in the novel for which the movie is based, our hero is blind but given sight to carry out the mission.

Correction: This is a question, not a mistake. They never say how he became blind. If his blindness was caused by a severed optic nerve, for example, there would be no change in the eye's external appearance. Many blind people don't have deformity or discoloration on their eyes.

The issue was not addressed as to why his eye color changed from brown to white even though he is blind at the start of the movie.
He is not blind at the start of the movie.
