Aha!!! we were both wrong. His name is ANTHONY Francioso.
I had melded the name with James Franciscus.
From the 1970's to the 2000's there were 2 tv stars that had vision in one eye only (total blindness, not partial), name them.
I don't know if there are others, these 2 are the only ones I know.

Falk is the obvious one, Kunis is no longer blind in one eye (corrective surgery), she was blind at one point, I guess she qualifies.
There is still one tv star outstanding who acted in the 70's to present.
Unanswered question from post #'s 1 - 1,000:
No online video exists of this event, and probably never will, but I am an eyewitness. In a 1989 episode of Family Feud titled The Funny Men vs. The Funny Women:
The question was "Name a place where lovers meet to share a secret kiss". Richard slammed the buzzer, and squealed "The locker room! Oh...wait", and of course that wasn't one of the top answers from the survey. . Willie Tyler and Lester were standing in front of Richard on The Funny Men team. Richard kept chattering away about how he was only joking, trying desperately to get back into the closet from which he had outed himself. Lester's head swivelled 180 degrees to face Richard, and in a low voice, but clearly audible, Lester said "Stay away from me, you damned faggot".
Movie trivia: Richard Simmons' first silver screen appearance was in 1969, where he had an uncredited role as "nymphomaniac's slave" in Fellini Satyricon.
Lester, from the ventriloquist act Willie Tyler and Lester.

Sandy Duncan.
And Wesley Walker of the New York Jets. Howard Cosell used to mention that frequently on Monday Night Football.
The one time it was really obvious to me that Peter Falk only had vision in one eye was when they showed him in the crowd at The US Open tennis match. He was starring straight ahead, but his eye was going back and forth horizontally, like a 1978 Cylon on Battlestar Galactica.

Correct! She didn't need a glass eye, since the bad eyeball was tracking with the good eye.

Walker wasn't totally blind in one eye, he was deemed legally blind , meaning that he had some vision , so he doesn't fit criteria for the trivia question.
Name show about a guy who fathers a baby by impregnating a serial killer.
