It depends on whether they were born blind or not.

Hi,
I once read that blind ppl cannot have visual dreams, if they were born blind. It makes sense, becuz if ur brain has never recieved visual signals, then how can it "create" them while u are asleep?
Another interesting fact is that dreams are very closely related to what we see. For example, during the era of black and white TV. People had a lot of black and white dreams... But now, ppl have colour dreams, usually.
Once, during the night before a chemistry exam, I had studied really hard and when I dozed off, I saw a dream in which I was solving equations and it was quite real! For example, I could see the equation quite clearly and was also balancing it... Too bad I didnt perform too well in the exam...

it depends on whether they are born blind or not. if they are not born blind and have had experience seeing objects and people. then they will definitely have dreams with images they saw.
but i believe those who are born blind. they probably dream not about images. but maybe voices or sound that they experience. they may even dream about tasting and touching smth.
Our mind is magnificent. it can do wonders.

People who are blind from birth appear to lack visual imagery in their dreams. It is believed that the parts of their brains that register visual information remain dormant.
People who lose their sight early in childhood retain visual imagery in their dreams well into adulthood. However, this imagery fades over time.

if they're blind from birth, they do not see dreams, they just hear them
but if they turned blind at some point of their life, after having lived not blind, they can see in their dreams

Imaginative images to not require a cornea or nerve cells so yes but if they have never seen (born blind) their imagination would be in shapes minus colour and textures.
