A potion of blindness makes you blind. If you drink one, it will make you blind for 250-450 (more) turns (if blessed, subtract 125; if cursed, add 125). Dipping a unicorn horn into this, a potion of confusion, or a potion of hallucination will produce an uncursed potion of water.

This potion can be used against monsters to blind them, or as a substitute for a blindfold if you have telepathy or are fighting a creature with a gaze attack. Due to a bug, (alternate-)wielding this potion nullifies the blindness attack of Archons and yellow lights.

If you accidentally drunk blindness (or just risked it) and cannot cure it, the strategy advice on zen conduct might prove useful.
