Anyone remember an episode about a rich blind woman?

She bought a poor man's eyeballs and blackmailed a surgeon into doing the switch. The twist was she would only see for six hours and for some crazy reason she chose nighttime in New York.. just as a blackout hits. I know I saw it, but would like to see if anyone else remembers.

Sure, it was the second segment of the original "Night Gallery" pilot film. Joan Crawford was perfectly cast as the rich woman who wanted to see, Barry Sullivan played a guilt-ridden surgeon, Billy Goldenberg's music is really cool and it was directed by a very young Steven Spielberg. Great work by all.

That's the one !!.. and I thought it was a young Spielberg. Thanks for responding. Maybe I can find it streaming somewhere.

It should be on Hulu.
