okay i think the eye popping out is hearsay at best but according to these articles that @kingofthering found (here and here, translated from french) and this image of baby marc w his eyepatch #hiseyepatch, i think it’s safe to say that marc’s been dealing with diplopia since he was 14
the press release for the race (archive link) mentions the diplopia and its cause- traumatic fourth nerve palsy (damage to the fourth cranial nerve caused by the fall, resulting in paralysis of the corresponding eye muscle)
this interview is from 2015 after valencia on the italian show striscia la notizia by valerio staffelli. but i found marc's answers just. oh wow okay, for lack of better words, so i'll share some moments that stuck out to me
i do think marc has always had at least a little bit of natural pr. and esp after joining honda he was able to handle himself well with the media, so i won't say that this is him being completely truthful about his feelings (which are. complicated) but it's obviously layers deeper than the mask we see now!!
full version and og tweet linked, all translation and image credits to thedoctordonnna on twt!
Interviewer: So we came here to bring you the golden tapir, here, take it, it's for you. Do you know what it means?
Marc: No, no. Jajajaja, yeah, thank you, but no.
Interviewer: Well, the tapir is an award that 'striscia la notizia' gives to those who... made a mess. Well, in fact, lately, you actually did quite a mess, no? It happened, what we all saw
Marc: Ah, thank you... yes, yes, I think the whole world knows.
Interviewer: Look, but how come, we all questioned, you didn't win the race [Valencia].
Marc: Ehhh, this is... is... another mess now, no? The goal honestly... well, before the Valencia race I knew that if this situation was to happen, it would come out another mess, no? And the goal for this reason was to try and win the race. And try to keep the first place so that there would be no mess, would be no nothing, nothing to talk about and that's it. (...) And I'm very sorry for the situation after, I'm not sorry for the result, because I came second and I've made it to the podium, but my goal was to win to avoid all of this.
Interviewer: It's normal to think since what happened in the last race, (...) you're 3 Spaniards and 1 Italian, and the people thought, 'they've made a deal'.
Marc: I'm very sorry to hear all of this but... but I can also understand the people who say 'eh, the Spaniards helped each other' but, in the end, this is an individual sport. It is evident that in MotoGP, the 4 strongest riders is the one Italian and the three Spaniards. For example, in Australia, I've got 5 points from a Spaniard, Jorge, and I haven't gotten the 3 points from the Italian who was Valentino. And nothing happened there, we all got to the finish line. Valentino came to apologise, and to shake hands, and to say sorry and nothing happened, because nothing had happened. We did a great race.
Interviewer: You and Valentino were such good friends. I remember photos of you very young with Valentino, Valentino's photos at your home. I remember you going to Valentino's ranch with all his friends to race. In this moment, it looks like the relationship is almost... shattered. What happened, good lord? You were such good friends.
Marc: Honestly, I'm so sorry, I feel bad to say that we were such good friends. I'd like to say that we are still good friends, no? But it is positive that with Valentino, we talk, I went to his ranch, this is his merchandising [tugging on his jacket].
Interviewer: Exactly, he manages the sellings.
Marc: Yes, yes.
Interviewer: Now, he won't sell them anymore, obviously.
Marc: Eh, jejeje, who knows. I hope he will.
Marc: I hope that from here, in three weeks, one month or two, everything will be more calm. Valentino at his home will be more calm and I will be too. Here is my hand ready to shake his hand whenever he will want to.
Interviewer: (...) So is it true that you can be friends but one wants to win the race, right?
Marc: Yes, and I'm sorry for this, what you have said is the same that happened to me with Valentino. When I was young, there were a lot of strong Spaniards, but for some reason it was Valentino, the idol. He was Italian but for that... for like, for his smile, for everything, no, for everything he has done, like, also... honestly I feel bad for the situation and I'm sorry because I know that I gave my 100%. I did it in Australia, I did it in Malaysia, and here in Valencia. And I'm so sorry because my relationship with Italy was very good. When I went there, I felt very very good on the circuits and all.

So, in Tolkein lore, the world was originally flat, with most of the land in the middle (hence Middle Earth). But the Numenorians (men who were rewarded with their own Atlantis-equivalent island for service in the first big war against Melkor, but eventually Power Corrupts etc) tried to invade the uttermost west which was basically Elf Heaven. To put an end to that sort of thing, the creator of the world Bent The World and made it a sphere…but left elves able to treat it like a flat disk. So elves can sail west and reach Elf Heaven, but a man or dwarf or hobbit who sails west will eventually wrap around to the east coast of Middle Earth.
