    If they were born blind, they only experience sensations, not sights. However, if they went blind later in life, they dream like sighted people and even visualize people they've never seen before.

    Blind people have their different own world, with their different vision. They are using their finger tips which are very sensitive to see (feel) things around. They have a very high level imaginary, so they often feel that they saw everything. It means without any doubts, that they can see in their dreams.

    Of course. I think everyone who answered here and used literal logic, science and reason in composing their response, completely and utterly misses one obvious fact. Actually they miss the only fact that really matters - that dreams are not logical. Since when have dreams been logical?

    We all dream of soaring, though none of us have ever soared. We all dream of reading other peoples' thoughts or bending another's will to ours by thought alone, so are we all possessive of the sixth sense or telepathy? No, of course not. We all dream that we've died, and we're all still alive.

    We have all dreamt of senses and experiences that have never been ours. So do people who have never seen, dream in sight? What do you think? I think the answer is obvious.

    if they weren't born blind then they probably see in their dreams but only the images that they know and remember. but only a blind person can answer this question for you.
