Omission concerning vision (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oversight

'omission' is the definition.
(I know that oversight is a type of omission)

'concerning vision' is the wordplay.
'concerning' becomes 'over' (both can mean relating to).
'vision' becomes 'sight' (synonyms).
'over'+'sight'='OVERSIGHT'

(Other definitions for oversight that I've seen before include "Neglect" , "Slip-up" , "act of negligence" , "Innocent mistake" , "Supervision - omission" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
