** When you meet Starscourge Radahn, he's long been diminished by the Scarlet Rot, which shows by the fact that he's a mid-boss despite being Malenia's equal lorewise. Also, both of his feet are gone. Not that this stops him from freezing several meteorites in place, putting up a significant fight, or [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments still caring for his horse, Leonard]].

* ''VideoGame/{{Arknights}}'': Multiple characters in the game suffer from Oripathy, which is a fatal condition that causes the body to gradually crystallize into Originium. Nevertheless, many of them are still in combat and put up quite the fight despite their deteriorating health.
** [[PlayingWithFire Eyjafjalla]]'s Oripathy caused her to go deaf and she is mentioned to be nearly blind.
** Santalla lost an eye to Oripathy after she was stabbed in the eye by an Ursus soldier with an Originium shard.
** [[AnIcePerson FrostNova]] was dying from late-stage Oripathy caused by lack of treatment in addition to Originium Arts overuse. It didn't stop her from going all out in Episode 6: Partial Necrosis [[spoiler:after the Yeti Squad was killed, albeit she ends up dying from the strain.]]



* The ''Garradores'' in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'' have their eyes [[EyeScream sewed shut]]. And can nevertheless always know where Leon is by following his footsteps or his [[TheNoseKnows smell]]. Add to that sets of 2-feet long steel claws and [[LovecraftianSuperPower a homicidal parasite dwelling in their bodies]] and you have quite the badass.

* ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'':
** ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2'' introduces Lickers, which are t-Virus victims that have undergone a second mutation. The mutation causes their brains to swell and take over their eye sockets, rendering them blind - but they evolve excellent hearing to compensate, and they can easily chew through unprepared characters like paper.

** Ironically, Hawkeye Gough, another one of the Four Knights of Gwyn, is {{blind|Weaponmaster}}, and according to himself, {{retired|Badass}}. Neither of these facts stops him from shooting down a dragon because it won't stay in one place. It's implied he's not ''actually'' blind -- the description of his helmet says that the eyeholes have been plugged up, so he may just ''think'' he's blind since he never takes it off -- but [[DistinctionwithoutADifference that's just semantics]] since he still can't see out of it.

* For a ''very'' generous definition of the term, the titular VideoGame/CaptainNovolin. Despite his Type 1 Diabetes that he continually has to manage, he's still able to get out there, drive speedboats, climb mountains and [[GoombaStomp put both of his red boots to many craniums]] in order to rescue Mayor Gooden and put a stop to the aliens' antics
