Bats are born with their eyes closed and begin to open them after a few days. Despite being born blind, having eyes allows them to see once their vision develops, aiding in navigation, finding food, and avoiding obstacles.

Are bats blind?

no not all bats are blind ... .... .... new answer .... OK no all bats are able to see the reason they use sonar is because that they see the same way humans do... they use cones and rods in their eyes, which can't see at night, so there fore... bats are not blind they are more able to see than we are. They are just nocturnal so that they are only out during the night. And thus bats cant see at night even though they can see perfectly normal.No they are not blind, but they have little need to use their eyes to know where to fly. Bats can 'hear' their surroundings by sonar and therefore can 'see' at night.
