眚

1. Physical: Impairment of vision, specifically eye disease, blindness, or blurred vision.

2. Moral/Legal: A fault, error, or transgression. This may manifest as an oversight (lack of foresight), a liability (an inherent flaw leading to an unfortunate outcome), or the cause of a misfortune.

In legal, ritual, or philosophical contexts, 眚 typically denotes an unintentional fault—a mistake born of deficiency, ignorance, or a "blind spot." It is distinguished from 罪 (zuì), which often implies a willful violation of law or morality.

In legal or ethical passages, prefer "fault," "oversight," or "unintentional error" over "crime" to avoid implying malice. In medical or descriptive contexts, use "blindness," "eye disease," or "visual impairment."
