recovery of vision following blindness  

Definición

  • In 1688, William Molyneux sent a letter to John Locke in which he asked whether a man born blind, who had learned to distinguish a globe and a cube by touch, would be able to distinguish them by vision alone, if sight were ever restored. It was not until almost 30 years after the posing of Molyneax's problem that the surgeon William Cheselden reported that a patient whose sight had been restored after years of blindness did indeed have acute difficulties interpreting the visual world.
