Eh, they still are a thing of honor. The eye...really isn't. It was my first real introduction to the Capital Wasteland. I got duped by this guy. He told me his daughter had been brainwashed by some cult leading nutjob and ran away with him, and that if she resisted I was to knock her out and bring her back to him. He had people to testify on his behalf, so I figured he was on the up-and-up.
Turns out? He was some crazy ex-general, and he was insanely controlling and abusive towards his daughter. The guy she ran away with, guy I had to maim to even get to her, was her fiance, and I'd just handed her back over to a guy that was probably gonna beat her black and blue for days.
The eye was what happened when I brought her back and he decided to cover it up. Dodged fast enough to avoid death, but it came down to buying a cybernetic replacement or a couple shots of anti-rad meds. Hadn't found any clinics that month, so I had to go with the anti-rads.
