Xiahou Dun wears an eye patch because when he was fighting during the battle with Lü Bu's army (the best warrior ever). Xiahou Dun pulled the arrow from his eye, plucked his eye off of the end of it and ate it as he refused to waste the gift from his parents.

Although Xiahou Dun was a military general, he personally invited his teacher to his camp for guidance so that he can carry on his studies. He was a prudent man to himself and generous to others. He did not enjoy keeping a wealthy estate so whenever he had extra income he gave them to the masses, and whenever there was a shortage he took from the treasury.
