Answer 1

they sure can, my friend says he can so ya they can

Answer 2

Most people say yes they can see. But I don't know what to believe. Because there's no way to find out unless your blind.

I personally don't know if they dream because dream are caused by memories of things that you see in your everyday life. I think they could dream of stuff they hear and stuff they imagine.

Our brain is like a giant filing cabinet. Everything we see, hear, taste, smell and touch is remembered by our brain, and put into what we might call a “brain file.” When we read a book, watch a television show or video, listen to music, eat some ice cream or pet a soft rabbit, it is all recorded in our “files.” Our brain pays attention even when we don’t! We call those files our memories. Usually, we don’t even know all those things are in our head!

We dream about many different things. When we go to sleep, our brain begins to take bits and pieces of memories and put them together into a dream.

Answer 3

It depends if they are blind from birth or were blinded sometime in their lifetime. My father was blinded during the war and of course he dreamt the same way we all dream. Studies show the people who are blind from birth dream in colours and sound as they have never had images to rely on.

Answer 4

Don't you think they would dream for what their mind interprets them to see? We dream about what we see, so wouldn't it be the same for them in the sense of a blind person?
