This is how to kind of kind of kind of (I still can't imagine it which is really really sad :() "Actually this isn't the right way. Closing your eye doesn't disable your visual perception. Green_Salt has it the other way around: What you see out of your closed eye IS black, NOT "you don't see anything at all". Just look straight to an object, make sure your eyes don't move, and try to perceive the edges of your vision. You can view the curtains but you can't view the drawer to your left, for example, because it isn't in your line of sight. Now imagine how blind people - that is, those who never saw to begin with - don't have anything in their line of sight. They see nothing. Not black, but no sight at all. They don't perceive. When you close your eyes, you still have a field of perception. It may appear black, or you may see lots of these very small dots flashing all over the place on a black background, whatever, but that isn't equal to nothing. Even with your eyes closed, you are still 'perceiving' that visual field. You just can't distinguish it as easily from nothing as you would when you had your eyes open. An example with a different body part: Try to imagine what it's like not having a tail. You don't feel like something is missing, because you didn't have it in the first place."

My husband lost his eye sight before we started dating. In order for me to be more sensitive to the dilemma of total blindness, I spent a day blind-folded. The things I learned about the fear factor, when someone is leading you around, was eye-opening. Food doesn't taste the same, because not being able to see the food, somehow diminishes the taste. I realized how I tensed up, as my friend was leading me around the mall. I had never needed to trust someone like that, before. I appreciate my BLIND husband. He was a real man. His humor was gigantic. He had phenomenal coping skills. He went to Braille and learned living and cooking skills (without sight). Boy, could he cook. I used to tease him about his blindness to add more pleasure to his day. I would say things like, "Here, you drive. I'm tired. Don't worry baby; if you get lost, stick your (white) cane out of the car window. They'll give you the right-of-way. You'll do just fine." His response would be something like, "I would, baby; but I gotta go to the bathroom in a hurry and you drive faster." On another day, I might finish getting ready for church. He'd say, You really look nice today, mama. I just might take you out to dinner." One day, at church, he was presented with a plaque. He was guided up to the mic. He reached into his shirt pocket and said,, "Well, it looks like I left my reading glasses at home; so I won't be able to use the notes I prepared for my acceptance speech. Bear with me saints." Do you know, they were too afraid to laugh? I couldn't believe how awkward it felt in that church, that morning. I was the only person laughing... and we weren't even dating each other yet. We were just friends. This is the title to my KZread video about how I appreciated my hubby. I recorded it after he passed away, to remind all that are married, why we need to appreciate our mates.

+Bigdipshit1 When you're different from other people, even if you've always been 'that way' you know that you stand out. Sometimes it's not so easy to have a sense of humor about it. Tommy does a great job at keeping things in perspective. It's true that you may feel more of a sense of loss if you were 'normal' for a bit and something made you abnormal/different, but you'll know you're different even if you've never experienced 'normal' because people will treat you differently. (How I know I'm not talking out my butt: I was fully sighted until about age 6 or 7, then I lost vision in my Right Eye. I'm in my 30s now and don't actually remember what it's like to see out of that other eye anymore, but I sure as heck notice when people give me dirty looks because they tried to pass me in a grocery store on my right side and I couldn't see them and therefore didn't move out of their way. I also notice the panicked look on people's faces when/if they DO realize I'm partially blind after being a jerk to me.)

he's blind he can't read this

It's hard to wrap our heads around it, but I think that if Tommy can recognise the presence and absence of light, then he probably "sees" what we see exactly when we close our eyes, but the only difference is that we've learned to identify this thing that we see as the colour black, while he has never seen colours before in order to be able to confirm to us that he sees exactly what we see... We can't communicate effectively with him.. If you and i both saw something, i can point at an object and say "is this the colour that you saw?" to which you'll say "yes", because you and i share an understanding of the concept of colour, whereas in Tommy's case, communication is impossible in that regard!!

He has nothing to compare with. Black is just a word for him. If we tell him that his nothingness is black then he can relate this word to his experience. Then he will understand, ah ha so nothingness is the blackness. He sees blackness but he cannot see colors. Nothingness which is pure black is the background and the foreground is the colors. He exist only in the background and cannot perceive the foreground and cannot understand it when we speak of it. When we talk about shades, shadows, colors such as red, blue, green and so on, that we can see shapes or contours of the objects in a dark room which lacks all colors. These are just words for him. So when we say "can you see black" it is just a word which he cannot refer too something, and he has to guess what black is and apparently his guess of what black is is wrong.

Yeah because seeing black requires visual input, it requires your eyes to work and send information to your brain, we don't know what nothing is because we BASE our world on what we see, and comprehending no visual input is just impossible

To describe what blind people see, just imagine seeing what’s behind you right now without looking, that’s what it’s like to be blind.

Naaahhh I think they see black. But conceptualizing the color black is like describing what's behind you. If you were to get someone who is blind in one eye. Then have them completely cover there good eye. They would say they see black.

Blind people do see black it's just like he said they have no concept of what black is so they can't really tell us this. I know this cause my friends uncles vision was restored and he said all he saw was black. EDIT- this is just what my friend told me I don't know if it's fact

Hi Tommy, thank you for sharing your life & world experiences and wonders. My piano teacher was blind, so I could learn about that other way of sight from my earlier childhood, could learn so much from seeing otherwise. I wonder how you manage dangers and conflicts, would you like to share some of your experiences about, how you maintain or prevent verbal conflicts, how you meet dangers and maintain your safety? Looking forward to hearing about it, thank you in advance! I use an Orange feather as an alert- image to raise awareness about the possible escalation of fury and anger, to hold on, to prevent undesired outcome- that is how I teach children and adults in my workshops to train their ethic imagination Kind regards, Tatjana

Serious question, have you ever done LSD or any other psychedelic drugs? It isn't illegal to admit prior drug use, so please don't feel compelled to retain information. They can create mental images of things you've never conceived of before and I wondered how blind people react to psychedelic hallucinogens has to do with something going on in the brain, not the eyes.

You do realise that that darkness is what we call black, and that brightness is what we call white (if it's strong enough)? Other colours are obviously completely different (did anyone try to shine a very strong blue light on you and a very strong white (normal - what you see when the sun shines through a window) light on you and see if you can distinguish the difference?), but it sounds like you can understand what black and white are.

I think being blind is not really a concept that sighted people can grasp, since we have never known anything other than "seeing" Just like the conecpt of seeing can never truly be grasped by a person born blind, since they have never known anything such as "seeing".
