From some website---> "There has been a lot of blindness in my family - my mother, her mother, and her uncle. Because of this, we have associated with blind friends all our lives. I can tell you that they do indeed dream, but quite often their perceptions are quite different from ours.
A good example of this would be a gentleman who used to work for my mother. He was born blind, but at the age of 24 had an operation - a corneal transplant, I believe, and was able to see. His vision wasn't 20/20 by any means - he was still legally blind - but he could see! He told me that the first time he saw a broom, he could not for the life of him figure out what it was. When someone explained to him that it was a broom, he was dumbfounded. He had used a broom nearly everyday of his life, but he had pictured them completely different in his mind, and was shocked by the broom's appearance.

So yes, blind people do dream. And they do "see" things in their minds, even if they don't turn out to actually look like what they've imagined. "

Like that Snooker commentator, who once remarked;

"And for those of you watching in Black and White, the Brown ball is the one just behind the Pink! "
