How can moonshine cause blindness?

Answer 1

Almost always it can’t. It is very difficult to cause blindness with moonshine. I have made lots of booze, never any methanol, the first bit gets thrown out( used for cleaning stuff) anyway.
People substituting in methanol for some reason could do it. Most the stories come from when the various governments put poison into un taxed alcohol. Which they still do!
