By extension: You are the one who must open his eyes, or create an opening for him. You need to help him and initiate a path for him to learn and understand ('את' sometimes means 'you' in the language of the Sages).

("And for the one who does not know how to ask – you open [the way] for him, as it is said: 'And you shall tell your son on that day'" – Passover Haggadah)
