Im blind in my right eye and going blind in my left.
I would rather be blind though, I like hearing voices and hearing music. My whole life is already dedicated to sound so being blind isnt an issue. People are also only thinking of the current situation. "cant see internet so i would rather be deaf." well, what if you grow up? what if you have kids and a husband/wife? Honestly, it is nice to see people who you marry but why? wouldn't you appreciate more of a person on how they sound and not how they look? The same with your kids, I honestly would rather hear the soothing sounds of my child talking to me than growing up, them wondering why you haven't responded to anything her or she says, your spouse having to explain to your kid and teaching them sign language so you can see what they are saying. I like how music sounds to my ears, it calms me and so does peoples voices. Plus, you can always feel faces and guess what they look like anyway. Sorry if this seems much but I have had a lot of time to think about, especially if you are already going blind.
