Random Blindness

I can’t say for sure, but the pupils look a little fuzzy. Mareks disease can cause a graying or fading of the colored iris and the pupil may be irregular in shape.
After reading what Mareks are I don't think Its It. shes been getting better and adapting to being blind... And after 48 hours since she first showed that shes sick none of the rest of the flock showed any sintomes of being sick.
 
Ocular Mareks may be the only symptom. But as I said, the pictures were not very clear. In this link there is a good picture of how eye or ocular Mareks looks:

Some types of blindness in chickens can be due to vitamin a deficiency. Using a balanced chicken feed would be recommended.
