1. luscus: Cic. de Or. 2, 60, 246 Juv. (for which Plin. 11, 37, 55, has luscinus, appy. = one who has lost an eye by violence).
2. ūnŏcŭlus: Pl. Curc. 3, 24: Sol.
3. expr. by circuml., altero lumine orbus, Plin. l. c.; altero oculo captus: cf. Liv. 22, 2, extr. (N.B.--Avoid monoculus, which is late and a hybrid word; also cocles, which as an appellative became obsol.: cf. Pl. l. c.)
