George Leo Haydock, on Tob 14:1

“And the words of Tobias were ended. And after Tobias was restored to his sight, he lived two and forty years, and saw the children of his grandchildren.”

“Words. Greek, “confession; (or hymn of praise) and he was 58 years old when he lost his sight, which he recovered eight years after, and gave alms, and continued to fear the Lord God, and to confess unto him. Now he arrived at a very advanced age,” 158, ver. 10. (Haydock) — But this chronology must be abandoned. All the versions disagree; and perhaps there may be none perfectly accurate. (Calmet)”
