Blindness

Yes, St. Paul, originally known as Saul of Tarsus, was cured of his blindness. According to the New Testament in the Book of Acts, after his encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus, he was blinded for three days. Ananias, a disciple, was instructed by God to visit Saul, lay hands on him, and restore his sight, which he did, resulting in Saul's healing and subsequent conversion to Christianity.

Monochrome blindness, also known as total color blindness or achromatopsia, is a rare visual impairment where individuals perceive the world in shades of gray, lacking the ability to see colors. This condition arises from a malfunction or absence of cone cells in the retina that are responsible for color vision. People with monochrome blindness may also experience reduced visual acuity and sensitivity to light. Unlike typical color blindness, which affects color discrimination, monochrome blindness results in a complete absence of color perception.

In "Little House on the Prairie," the character Mary Ingalls is portrayed as blind, but the actress who played her, Melissa Sue Anderson, is not actually blind. Mary goes blind in the series due to an illness, which is a significant aspect of her character's storyline. Anderson's performance effectively conveys the challenges and experiences of a visually impaired person, despite her own sight.

there is no specific age group, this is a genetic defect that makes the body unable to produce or distribute melanin. so any one could get this disease, there is no real group

Weed is very strange for me. The first time I got high my vision became larger and "high definition." I normally have extremely good vision so it is strange that I have better vision when high. However, there have been times when high that I have lost vision, and been temporarily blind, but this has been like when you stand up after sitting down and your vision is shakey except amplified a ton. I now have the ability to amplify my vision without smoking weed which is pretty neat but I know of no one else that has had the same experiences as myself.

baby of 1 yr old blind through meningitis can it ever get better for him?

Because they can't see when to pull the chute.

If you are extremely sleepy you may have trouble focusing your eyes, but you won't actually go blind. However, it is not good for your health in general to be deprived of sleep. Try to get enough sleep.

My first thought was stroke but if all of this has happened to you, you need a doctor, not ask on WA.

First they will check your vision, if you need correction based on that test they do a refraction (the machine with all the lenses where they ask you "better 1, or better 2?". After they get your glasses rx, if needed, they will check your intraocular pressure using either a tonopen, applanation or non-menthol contact applanation (the air puff), but they will put a numbing drop in your eye so you won't feel anything. Next they dilate your eye (make your pupil big) and then check the back of your eye (retina, optic nerve, macula, blood vessels). A lot depends on age and health, but those are the basic things they look for in an regular eye exam.

Same as other sited people. Reading, writing, playing sports, (like beep baseball, which is an adapted version of baseball), swimming, listening to music, running track, playing videogames (we cann them audiogames-they're loads of fun!), using the computer with the help of a screen reader...anything a sited person can do a blind person can do.

this is an old wives tale. not a valid treatment. Dr. Rozen

A slit lamp examination, in which a narrow beam of intense light is used to examine the internal components of the eye, may also be performed. Additional testing may be performed

They can trip over (bags, objects, wires) as they can not see their way.

They may not perceive imminent danger from another person or some mechanical object such as a vehicle or moving machinery.

It can if you are looking directly at it when it explodes, the UV light burns the retina.

Gas Blindness is when someone is blinded through poisonous gas, these gases include tear gas, mustard gas, etc...

These have great effects on the war and changed the old trench warfare, but turned it into a gas war. Germany was the first to produce large scale gas canisters, they were shipped to the destination and dropped from plane, when in contact with the ground the gas explodes.

The first early gas mask were too small. Then a more effective gas mask was developed, but failed to protect the wearer from High Security gases.

Mustard gas is a deadly gas that will attack any exposed flesh, rotting it and eating away at it. It was deadly and millions of soldiers were blinded or died.

No, drying up of our eyes causes iritation.

In all cases, treatment of vitamin toxicity requires discontinuing vitamin supplements.
