Yes hypoglycemia can lead to consequences like visual deformity, developmental delay but as u have mentioned that the child is 2 months now , is active and gaining weight, the child seems to be thriving well. As far as side effects are associated it will take time to assess and monitor them.
U need to get the child evaluated and regular follow up for the same.

Hello Dont feel guilty
Your helpless at that time because of C - Section.
I can understand your anxiety as a mother.
As a you have given formula milk it has got more sugars/ Glucose levels than mother's milk so I don't think so low glucose levels might have happend
By 2 months 1 Kg gained means that's great thing
You have a great till now
I really appreciate your concern about your kid
