How do you know if a fish is blind?

I ask this because i fed my new boy just now and he just carried on swimming madly around the tank, happy like he has been. I wiggled my finger in the weater as a sign for its feeding time and when i fed him he didnt see the flake, not even when he swam past it. Could he be blind? I tried a few times and its like he couldnt see the food?
