Seizures and blindness in a cat so young are very concerning. I would recommend that you have Lucifer evaluated by a vet as soon as possible to determine what could be going on and see if it is treatable. Blindness may not be curable, but many blind cats can live fully normal lives. If the seizures continue to happen, he made need to be on medications life-long.
