: You cannot see /at all/. This may be the way you were born, or may have come about after an accident. Whatever happened, even medical aids cannot help you to see.  While this did leave your hearing more sensitive, it does not allow you to navigate without trouble. You are dependent on help to navigate in unfamiliar locations. You also cannot excel at things where sight is important, such as dance, art or sports.
