His injured eye healed well very slowly.
- This option is incorrect. The passage does not indicate the pace at which Muir's eye healed, but it mentions that the injury was less serious than he initially thought.
He could not open his left eye during his exploration.
- This option is incorrect. The passage mentions that Muir felt he had \"scarce heart to open the other\" eye initially, but there is no indication that he could not open his left eye during his exploration.
His eyesight was affected, but he was able to carry on.
- This option is correct. The passage states, \"My poor eye is not better, nor worse... I am not always sensible of its presence,\" indicating that while his eyesight was affected, he was still able to carry on with his activities.
He took a long time to consult maps and study them.
- This option is incorrect. The passage mentions that Muir had been consulting maps for weeks before his injury, but it does not state that the injury affected the time he took to consult maps.
