Whether visual images will\u003cbr\u003eappear in their dream depends on whether they\u003cbr\u003ewhere blind at birth or became blind later in life. But\u003cbr\u003e5\u003cbr\u003evision is not the only sense that constitutes a dream.\u003cbr\u003eSounds, tactility, and smell become hypersensitive for\u003cbr\u003ethe blind and their dreams are based on these\u003cbr\u003esenses.\u003cbr\u003eThe dream world is fascinating full of speculation, hope,\u003cbr\u003eand sometimes even fear.
