[Icel. valdeyg[eth]r, or vagleygr; fr. vagl a beam, a beam in the eye (akin to Sw. vagel a roost, a perch, a sty in the eye) + eygr having eyes (from auga eye). See Eye.] Having an eye of a very light gray or whitish color. --Booth. [1913 Webster] 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.
