What are you looking for here? Advice/help with what? He's told you he's seen your pics and told you he thinks you're attractive. Unless he says/acts otherwise, listen to him.

But obsessing over your looks that you want to keep talking about how insecure you are is a turn off. If you're that insecure about it, I recommend starting therapy to help you deal with what you're feeling.

My husband is the sighted one in our relationship. I had more vision when we met than I do now (partial vision in one eye), looks aren't as important as sighted people make them out to be.

Stop focusing so much on your appearance. Listen to him. He's telling you you're attractive to him. If you can't trust that he's being honest about it, then you should probably take a step back from trying for a romantic relationship.

This isn't a sighted/blind issue. You would still have the same insecurities if he was sighted. This has nothing to do with him being blind and more how you feel about yourself.
