==10:46-52 Apart from having his eyesight restored what other significant feature is revealed about Bartimaeus here?==

Bartimaeus would let nothing hinder him or dampen his faith in Jesus to heal him. 

The more he was rebuked by the crowd for calling out to Jesus, the more he called out ('''cp''' Mk 10:48). 

He had absolute faith in Jesus to heal him. In the Greek construction of Mk 10:47-50, it teaches that he called on Jesus to heal him at once, and that when Jesus called him, he threw off his outer garment and leapt to his feet to get to Jesus. 

He intended that nothing would stop him from responding to Jesus' call. 

He was immediately healed and he then "followed Jesus in the way" - he became His disciple. 

Followed in this context means to accompany, especially as a disciple.
