Explanation:

• For the run - on sentence: "Tosin noticed things were blurry" is the first independent clause, and "his mom got him an eye doctor's appointment" is the second. The relationship is causal (because things were blurry, mom made an appointment), so "so" is the correct coordinating conjunction.
• For the journal and article title: "Eye Doctors Monthly" is the journal title (underlined) and "A New Kind of Lens" is the article title (in quotes).
• For the idiom: "a sight for sore eyes" is the idiom. It means something or someone that is very pleasant to see, especially after a long time or in a situation where one has been longing for it/them.
• For "appearance": It is a noun. The correct syllable division is "ap - pear - ance" (based on standard syllabication rules where we look at vowel - consonant combinations and pronunciation patterns).
• For the synonym: "optometrist" is a synonym for "eye doctor".
• For the root "opsis": It means "sight" (from Greek roots, related to visual perception).
