This gets asked all the time. Basically most answers are:

1. If they are totally blind and have always been totally blind then no.

2. If they were not always/not totally blind, then sometimes.

@mods can we compile a list of frequently asked questions that link to the threads about these topics? I’m kinda burning out on repeatedly answering/seeing this question and every variant of “I’m writing a blind character...”. (No offence meant to you OP. This is just the third time this month we’ve had this exact same question.)

I've just stopped answering them; you could do the same. But I still think it's a good idea to go along with the other stickied post.

I ignore a lot of them heh. I’m just tired of seeing them being asked when the answer is usually on the same page or people could use the search box, heh. It’s hard to resist the writers questions though; so much of our bad press comes from authors who either don’t research or want to write their vision of what we’re like more than respect us.
