Did you know? No one born blind has ever developed schizophrenia.
A study carried out by The University of Western Australia has provided compelling evidence that congenital/early cortical blindness – that is when people are Blind from birth or shortly after – is protective against Schizophrenia.
The unusual discovery has fascinated scientists and may lead to a better understanding of what causes schizophrenia – a question that has baffled scientists for decades.
Schizophrenia is characterised by symptoms such as losing touch with reality, hearing voices and having visual hallucinations. However, despite numerous bodies of research, the exact cause still remains a mystery.
