I remember someone on the board saying something about a home-made bomb or something like that, and that is what messed up his eye.

From the People Of The South Wind official fan club FAQ:
 
Rich said in a recent _Closet Chronicle_ interview (Summer '94)
that he was blinded in that eye by a "bomb" he made between 7th
and 8th grades.  The eye was replaced with a glass eye, which
gave it the "lazy eye" appearance which is noticeable in some
early pictures of him (the back cover photo on _SfA_, e.g.).
He started wearing the patch when he got tired of hassling
with the glass eye.

I always thought he was just trying to be coolConfused
I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

His eye is still there in the eye socket.  It hasn't left (yet).  In the mean time, the pirate look is acceptable.
