These are two different things. In some films — most notably — this linking of sight and mental state is plain. In that one, there's an explosion during a rather unlikely air raid, and both soldiers are apparently killed.

Marvin, whose idea it was to cast Mifune in Hell in the Pacific, so admired the Japanese superstar, he would break into histrionic Samurai impersonations when he'd had too much to drink. Bill has good taste in films, so I filed away his suggestion. Later during the shoot, Boorman bashed his knee against some coral and had to have surgery to relieve a terrible infection that could have caused him to lose his leg.
