Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to test the belief that specific areas of the brain are connected differently in blind patients than patients with sight In addition the study will examine the different anatomical connections between brain areas of patients who became blind early in life versus patients who became blind later
Detailed Description: The purpose of this protocol is to test the hypothesis that the anatomical connectivity of occipital and somatosensory areas in early blind subjects differs from that in subjects who became blind later in life and from that in sighted volunteers
