"Have you known any blind people?"
There was a classmate of mine that was blind. He was very paranoid, which is the basic personality of Stonekit.
"RiverClan, or the concept of Clanhood?"
If RiverClan was real. Also, he does doubt how Clanhood would work because of some Clanners trying to force their beliefs on others.

mm. All the blind people I've known have been somewhat aloof.
Was he born with cataracts, or did he acquire them at some later point?
"Because of his lack of sight and paranoia,"
--
The paranoia resulting from his lack of sight?
Seems like it should be reworded, since they're not quite seperate.
"He hates being ordered or forced to think a certain way, which made his convictions certain when his parents tried to show them their way of thinking."
--
Did they never hint at their opinions and then one day spring it on him?
I think you should try using the spell check button.

He acquired it at a later point.

Edited.
"Did they never hint at their opinions and then one day spring it on him?"
They did hint at their opinions at first, then it steadily got worse to the point that his parents tried to tell him what to think.

One, if it was a gradual build-up, then wouldn't he be getting more and more used to it? Two, telling your children what your opinions are = getting worse?

His parents were just talking about their opinions more and more. It's like getting yelled at over and over again. Even if you don't care about it, it's still irritating.

Yes, but you can be used to something and still have it bother you. For example, most adults are used to the fact that the world's not perfect, but it annoys them.
"Were his parents yelling their opinions?"
Practically.

Why were they yelling? Do they have bad hearing?

"Why were they yelling? Do they have bad hearing?"
They wanted their opinion heard, and that's the course that they chose to show their opinion.
