Is the sacrifice acceptable if it has a defect in its eye that is not obvious?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner says: If the sacrificial animal is blind in one eye, but the blindness is not obvious, is it acceptable?

Answer:
No. The hadith specifies that the blindness must be obvious. If there is a defect in the eye or in its sight, that is what causes harm; a slight defect does not.
