Mike May's Perceptions Home Page
"Mike May has regained some sight after being totally blind since the age of three. 43 years later, he is seeing with the curiosity and newness of a child..."
Scientists are studying May's perceptions, and learning that seeing something is not the same thing as interpreting what we see. Mike can see things now, but does not recognize his wife or his children. A cube drawn on a computer screen looked to him like "a square with extra lines" until it rotated. This site includes an account of his surgery and a journal with Mike's first hand account of experiences with his new vision.
