First, quick back story as to how I went blind. One day back in July 2016, I feel in my backyard on the tiles, and cracked the right corner of my head hard. So hard, I could only sleep an hour or two for a couple weeks as it hurt too much to lie down. That fall caused lesions in my right optic nerve, and from there the blood slowly leaked from behind my eyes up through the lesions until I was fully blind on Sept 15, 2016. Both optic nerves are dead, as there is no blood there to keep them alive.

For some inexplicable reason, as this should be medically impossible, I'm regaining my vision. This has been progressing over the pas week. Previously, the best vision I had was if it's a black door in a white wall, I'll be able to make it out. However, white door on white wall, no chance I'll see it. I was basically totally blind in both eyes.

For some reason now though on sunny days, I can see the sky is blue and the white clouds, whereas before I couldn't see the sky or clouds at all. We were driving today, as I was able to point out street signs and their color, I was able to see those little cement stoppers in a parking were yellow and I could see them clearly.

I was going to go for a pee in the trees, and I could see which sections were sparsely or densely populated with trees, plus I could see the green leaves. I can even kinda see myself in the mirror now, while previously it was just all black. I can make out a wolf in a painting, when previously I didn't even know there was a painting in that location on the wall.

Has anyone else experienced the same? Why is it happening? I thought nerve cells don't regenerate.
