This seems like a completed action, or at least a completed period of time:
Él no veía nada antes de la operación.
Why do we use the imperfect here?
Thanks.

Hola Marcos
here:
Él no veía nada antes de la operación.
the imperfect is used because him not being able to see is an ongoing action, as opposed to something that happened within a limited time with an end.
Saludos
