El mundo del ciego no es la noche que la gente supone. En todo caso estoy hablando
en mi nombre y en nombre de mi padre y de mi abuela, que murieron ciegos; ciegos,
sonrientes y valerosos, como yo también espero morir.
Se heredan muchas cosas (la ceguera, por ejemplo), pero no se hereda el valor. Sé
que fueron valientes.
Borges, 2004

Louis Braille (January 4, 1809 – January 6, 1852) was the inventor of braille, a worldwide
system used by blind and visually impaired people for reading and writing. Braille is read by
passing the fingers over characters made up of an arrangement of one to six embossed points.
It has been adapted to almost every known language, except Asian languages based on
characters. He was also blind.

Display his horoscope (Placidus) with biography and chart
Euler had diplopia due to his right eye strabismus, which led to progressive
atrophy of the right optic nerve and blindness after the left eye cataract
surgery. If he had a cerebral aneurysm as the underlying problem, the
delayed rupture of the aneurysm is remarkable.

Joseph Plateau
Display his horoscope (Placidus) with biography and chart
The more original investigations of Plateau refer chiefly to portions of one or another of two
branches of science—physiological optics and molecular forces. We owe to him the
"stroboscopic" method of studying the motion of a vibrating body, by looking at it through
equidistant radial slits in a revolving disk. In 1829 he imprudently gazed at the midday sun for
twenty seconds, with a view of studying the after effects. The result was blindness for some
days, succeeded by a temporary recovery; but for the next fourteen years his sight gradually
deteriorated, and in 1843 he became permanently blind.

John Milton
Display his horoscope (Placidus) with biography and chart
By 1654, Milton had become totally blind; the cause of his blindness is debated but bilateral
retinal detachment or glaucoma are most likely. His blindness forced him to dictate his verse
and prose to amanuenses who copied them out for him; one of these was poet, Andrew
Marvell.

The first of four sons born to Ganyinurra (Daisy), of the Gumal clan, and
Nyambi (Terry) Yunupingu, a Gumatj clansman,[8] he was born in
Galiwin'ku, Elcho Island in 1971,[9] situated off the coast of Arhem Land in
northern Australia, about 530 kilometres east of Darwin. He was born
blind, never learned Braille and did not have a guide dog or use a white
cane, and was said to be acutely shy.[10] When he was four years old, he
learned how to play a toy piano and an accordion by teaching himself. A
year later he began to play a guitar; despite being a left-hander, he played
a right-handed guitar, holding it upside down, which he would continue to
do throughout his career.[

Jacob Bolotin (January 3, 1888 – April 1, 1924). Born in 1888 to a poor immigrant
family in Chicago, Jacob Bolotin fought prejudice and misconceptions about the
capabilities of blind people in order to win acceptance to medical school and then into
the medical profession. He fought his way into and through the Chicago College of
Medicine, graduated with honors at twenty-four, and became the world's first totally
blind physician fully licensed to practice medicine. He was particularly recognized for
his expertise on diseases of the heart and lungs. Bolotin used his many public speaking
engagements to advocate for the employment of the blind and their full integration into
society. When Jacob Bolotin died at the young age of thirty-six, five thousand people
attended his funeral.[1][2]
