do people who are born blind do they see in there dreams?

Answer 1

No, they wouldn't. Visual stimulus is necessary for the wiring of the brain centers that process and interpret vision. The way the brain works is to develop, early in life, a huge number of neural synapses (connection points between neurons that are used in cell-to-cell signalling). As you grow and learn, these synapses are pared away to make the brain function efficiently, and that's the central basis of long-term learning. However, if the brain or any part of it fails to get information from hard-wired inputs, then that part of the brain will atrophy (at best, fringe areas of a cortical region might be adopted by adjacent cortical regions for different processes). But the take-away message here is that the brain needs visual stimulus in order to devolp the cortical regions that process vision. In the use-it-or-lose-it sense, the brain will not waste energy building and maintaining processes that aren't used. The optical cortex would never know how to function as an optical cortex in a person born blind.

Answer 2

I don't think so. I think our dreams are made up of the senses that we have. For most of us vision is how we get most sensory input. I would think that people born blind would smell and hear things in their dreams.

Answer 3

That is a very good question
I know some blind people I will ask them

Answer 4

If the description of a object is detailed enough and the person can feel and smell the object they can experience rough child like images when they are dreaming.

Answer 5

no, since the only think their mind is exposed to is darkness.
