This would depend on the nature of the individuals' blindness, i.e. its source: the pineal gland secretes serotonin in amount regulated by the exposure of the eyes to UV radiation. If the eyes are completeley without function (optical ganglia has deteriorated, eyes are physically damaged to the extent that they absorb no radiation, etc.).

Really a Good thinking....



Pineal gland secretes Melatonin, which is in responsre to light... The gland in a blind may be normal in structure but may not have normal function...

probably not but I can see why you ask. When you lose one of the senses you develop the others to a higher degree, that's all
