Crossword Genius

With expression of relief, Edward not blind (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sighted

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'not blind' is the definition.
('sighted' is the opposite to 'blind')

'with expression of relief edward' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'expression of relief' becomes 'sigh' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'edward' becomes 'ted'.
'sigh' put next to 'ted' is 'SIGHTED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sighted that I've seen before include "with a view?" , "Saw; able to see" , "Not blind" , "Viewers are" , "Spotted" .)
