But.............................HOW?
Do you mean people who developed debilitating cataracts to the point of 'legal blindness' who had them removed, and regained some sight that way?
I've been a member of the National Federation of the Blind, and I know a LOT of blind people, but I've not met one who can say they were blind and now they aren't.

There's also cortical visual impairment, which never fully resolves but can improve with intervention. It's more neurological than optical though.

Some people with uveitis have it so bad that they are legally blind and then it can improve with treatment
