Depending on what caused their blindness and how much damage was caused, yes. Injuries such as detached retinas and conditions like cataracts can cause blindness, but are sometimes reversible through surgery. Diseases like glaucoma can also cause blindness, but be treated with some medications.

Generally, a blind person blinks for the same reason a sighted person blinks. We blink to maintain the moisture in our eyes. They're at the same rate.

Do blind people care if they date ugly people?

I am not a blind person although I do have some blind friends, so I have some insight into the psychology of the blind. Blind people, much like sighted people, are not all the same, and do not all have the same criteria for dating. Some blind people would be quite happy to date someone who is ugly but friendly and who has shared interests (for example, science fiction fans often like to date or marry other science fiction fans). But appearance can still matter. A blind person may wish to have children, and if so, he or she would normally prefer that his or her children will be good looking. So the appearance of a spouse, which will be part of the genetic inheritance of the children, will still matter, even if the blind person never actually sees that appearance. How would a blind person know what is ugly, and what isn't? I don't think they would care too much since they can't tell who is attractive, and who isn't.
