11 hours agoThe brain after blindness: How newly-sighted people build a visual world
If we told them to look at the face, they could usually manage it. But they were mostly looking at the hands.

Their experiences reveal that seeing doesn't come naturally the moment a person is cured of blindness. Newly-sighted people must learn to see.
