A member asked:
If you were born blind, what do you actually "see"?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nothing if total: A completely blind person, unable to see any light at all, does not develop visual input or perception. All of the other sensory inputs work hopefully but a truly blind person sees nothing.
