Wow, that's really cool. Now I have an additional question. Assume at one point you were able to see and touch things, then lost your sight, then regained it.

Wow, that's really cool. Now I have an additional question. Assume at one point you were able to see and touch things, then lost your sight, then regained it. I'd think that while blind, you'd still try to form images of things you touched, and then be able to recognize them after your sight was recovered. If that's true, then the connection between the senses would not be fundamentally impossible, but rather a learned behavior.
