[Lexicog] open eyes

[Wayne Leman]

Is the collocation "open eyes" ever used in any standard dialect of English 
for a meaning other than 'to open one's eyelids" (e.g. upon waking up from 
sleep)?

I am particularly interested to know if a literal translation of the 
Hebraism "open eyes", meaning 'regain eyesight', is ever used in any 
standard dialect of English?


Thanks,
Wayne
