    probably not, the obfuscation of minecraft will likely change and make the interface invalid

    @HandofDon Did you make a backup? If not, then that stuff is gone. Always make a backup before installing mods. (Because you never know when a mod is going to break everything)

Sadly no. But Optifine has just released a standalone version that will work with Minecraft 1.8. No need to run forge or anything.

No. Optifine 1.7.10 is made for 1.7.10 and not for 1.8. Wait a bit until it is updated. Optifine light has less features, and ultra has more. I know this isn't a very complete answer but its all i know!
