Yes, eye for an eye literally. If you make someone blind, they could ask for the same about you and be granted by our judicial system. A case in a million, a family forfeits their right to the death penalty. It's very rare. Turning the other cheek? Never! God forbid! That's for the weak!! ohwell

Though I should mention that in Islamic verses, you could forgive, but just as well you could retaliate. No one blames you for that.
