Dear Frequent Masturbator Going Blind,
If your friend is having problems with his eyesight, we can assure you that it is not from masturbating. This old myth has no basis in reality. If your friend is really having trouble seeing, then he should go see an ophthalmologist, which is a doctor that specializes in the treatment of eyes.
For more information and other questions about masturbation do a search of the FX website. It is a hot topic with over 50 questions.
