As in Gloucestor finally "seeing" the truth about his sons only after becoming literally blind? Nice touch, William. I also definitely liked the storm's significance, how nature raged on while Lear's own feelings raged. I think there was a line that directly pointed out the metaphor. But Shakespeare doesn't bury you with it, it feels entirely comfortable and right.
