Meaning, if they weren't blind from birth will they only see what they remember?
If they were blind from birth, do they only dream in sounds and smells?

I'm just curious. I love to dream.

If you were born blind, how would you honestly know whether or not you dreamed of images? I'm not trying to be glib, I think it's a genuine issue. It's a bit like asking someone with an astigmatism or colour blindness to explain how what they see is different from normal.

People who have been blind from birth can only dream in sounds,smells, taste and touch , people who are not blind from birth can dream in images depending on what age they became blind at and what they remember

if your born blind no pictures,if youve gone blind after seeing for awhile,it all depends on why you went blind and physiologicaly what happened to make the person blind,eventually though no blind people dream in pictures,as that part of the brain no longer in use,for lack of a better term essentially atrophys
