Hi and welcome to the forum.
Could you please post some pictures of your turtle and its enclosure so we can help you better?
Also tell us what species of turtle you have, and how old?

Why do you suspect your turtle is blind?

Does he have any trouble eating? How long have you had him?

@Alex and the Redfoot might be able to give you Cyprus centered advice or he might know someone who can

I don't think there is anything country specific. The only thing is that we had really bad cold spell last weeks. If tortoise wasn't in a heated enclosure, then frost might have damaged its eyes. But Larnaca is on the coast line, there weren't below zero temperatures, as far as I know.

Does it walk around normally or bumps in the walls, etc?

I was just thinking brumation timing.
