i think the simple answer is dreams are born of experiences..so, whether your experiences include sight wouldn't matter at all. also, people who are sightless do "hear" descriptions of the world around them. though they won't have images in their dreams, they have sounds and sensations like all people do.
lastly, many dreams are based on emotional experiences; good or bad. those feelings would be recreated in dreams.
i did read that during the dream stage of sleep, sighted people have very strong rapid eye movement (rem), where as blind people have very little movement or none. because they are not "looking" at a picture.
an interesting fact that i saw on a documentary on sleep patterns was that while we are in rem sleep the body is paralyzed so that a person won't "act out their dreams". only a small amt. of people who have a certain sleep disorder aren't completely paralyzed and can sleep walk, or act out in many ways.

Believe it or not we do have other senses that we tend to forget about. Blind people use their other senses- they may dream in words, they may smell things.... same as someone who's been totally deaf all their life can't think in words, but thinks in sights, smells, the sense of touch.

The sweet taste of mother's milk, the warmth of a favorite blanket, the sound of a happy child laughing, the smell of the cat lying next to him in the grass and the argument with Grandpa, among hundreds of thousands of other things like the concept of gravity or his love of hip hop.

I read somewhere that when blind people dream it is much more of a repeat of actual events they've experienced than it is fantasy - not sure how true that is though ...

they dream about the people they know, the conversations they want to have, the music they hear, the pets they touch, the math problems they can't solve, the money they need...
Same as everyone else except they don't have a "dream TV screen" like sighted people, they have radio dreams.

Though they don't see images when they dream, their other senses are more sensitive and their dreams are actually much more real.
