I'm really curious, see if someone is born blind, can they dream? if someone says blue to them do they know what it looks like? you can't describe a colour. If you can describe me a colour I will +rep you.

hope this help uAnswer from somebody who has been blind since she was fairly young:
" Yes, blind people do dream. What they see in their dreams depends on how much they could ever see. If someone has been totally blind since birth, they only have auditory dreams. If someone such as I, has had a measure of sight, then that person dreams with that measure of sight. I still dream as though I can see, colors included. For people I've met since, their faces are just blurs or how I imagine they look. To me, someone like my mother looks forever 30. "
Blind people still have an imagination and yes they can still dream, even if they are blind from birth. It's also argued they have a sense of colour too, not vast amounts but mainly reds and blues.

You should watch
At first sight
it's about a guy who is blind and he has surgery done and sees again and basically he doesn't know what anything is and wishes he was blind again because of it.
It's just a film but whatever, gives you the idea of what it would be like if someone who has been blind sees again and really made me realise how confusing it must be for a blind person
