Do blind people see in their dreams? (self.Blind)
submitted by xGETxSHRECKEDx
Do people who are completely 100% blind and cannot see at all, see in their dreams? I’m very curious, I have wondered this for a while.

Born blind. My dreams are all audio and touch. Sometimes, but rarely, smell.

Not blind, but as far as I know, it depends on whether they have lost their sight or have been blind since birth.
If they have lost it after being able to see for some time, they can 'access' those images and create visual dreams. But, if they have never seen anything, they dream with sounds, smells, and touch.

The age range is actually roughly two years. That is when visual memories start to form. If children lose their vision before two, they usually wouldn't have any visual memory (or severely degraded ones)
