Welcome to Anime.SE. Could you provide the sources/references to this scene? You can always [edit] your post to improve the detail.

<p>I agree this definitely a plothole. Madara was having rinnegan in eyes when his very eyes (literally) were located elsewhere.</p>

<p>The question of getting back lost due from izanagi applies to both edo tensei eyes and actual ones.</p>

<p>My speculations to explain this (no proofs available):</p>

<ol>
<li>Edo rinnegan got the eyes (EMS only) when Madara was at physical peak but his soul and memories experienced rinnegan before death and so activated it.</li>
<li>Izanagi loss - He stole an normal uchiha eyes and activated all of MS EMS and rinnegan having experienced it in other eye. All this near his death.</li>
</ol>

Not a plothole. Kabuto purposefully did this as his Edo Tensei version allows him to select different features from different times of an individual's life

<li>Edo Tensei restores a person the way they were at the time of their death. When Madara died, he was wrinkly and old. How come Edo Tensei Madara is brand new?</li>
<li>Rinnegan is not a kekkei genkai/tota. Why does Edo Tensei Madara still possess the Rinnegan when, at the time of his death, he wasn't possessing Rinnegan (because he implanted them onto Nagato)? </li>
<li>Madara lost vision in one eye due to usage of Izanagi, but after awakening the Rinnegan, was he able to restore his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan that he lost? </li>
</ol>

Can you clarify what you mean by EMS in this context?

1. Edo Tensei restores a person the way they were at the time of their death. When Madara died, he was wrinkly and old. How come Edo Tensei Madara is brand new?
2. Rinnegan is not a kekkei genkai/tota. Why does Edo Tensei Madara still possess the Rinnegan when, at the time of his death, he wasn't possessing Rinnegan (because he implanted them onto Nagato)?
3. Madara lost vision in one eye due to usage of Izanagi, but after awakening the Rinnegan, was he able to restore his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan that he lost?
