Do blind people 'see' images in their dreams?

The article from MSN explores the intriguing question of whether blind people see images in their dreams. It explains that the nature of dreams in blind individuals varies significantly based on when they lost their sight. Those who were born blind or became blind at a very young age typically do not experience visual imagery in their dreams; instead, their dreams might involve other senses like sound, touch, taste, and smell. However, people who lost their sight later in life, after having established visual memories, can still dream in images, although these dreams might also incorporate other sensory experiences.

It also touches on scientific studies that have investigated dream content among the blind, highlighting the adaptability of the human brain in processing and creating dream experiences.
