The statement which most plausibly analyzes the aesthetic impact of the excerpt is: "After Gatsby's death the east was haunted for me like that, distorted beyond my eyes' power of correction." It means that Gatsby's passing had such an impact on the main character that it made him become unable to see the east the same way he did before. The impact was strong and affected not only the main character's emotions, but also his aesthetic sense to the point of making him see the east in a different, "distorted" way, and that beyond his eyes' "power of correction", which means that no matter how hard he tried, after his friend's death the east started to look different, or aesthetically different.
