In the 1940s in USA some newborns placed in oxygen-rich incubators went blind because eye tissue had not yet accumulated dietary carotenoids to protect excess oxygen. Now oxygen is increased slowly over days to allow newborns to provide anti-oxidant enzymes. Damage caused by too much oxygen is known as hyper-oxia. 8/05 www.lef.org

Oliver Cowdery regarding the American Indian Jews http://olivercowdery.com/texts/noah1837.htm "'No person dare open all the coverings. Tradition informs them that curiosity induced 3 different persons to examine the mysterious shell, who were immediately punished for their profanation by instant blindness.' This is the Jewish punishment pronounced for looking on the holy of holies - even now"

Angelina - http://www.bennyhinn.org/media/2010-9-1.asx
"A young woman named Angelina who shared the story of being healed from blindness."

Baker, Heidi Compelled by Love www.irismin.org shares many many stories of blindness being healed by Jesus. Book also shares that Heidi had to practice for one entire year before God honored His promise to heal the blind through her. He loves to test our trust in Him and not in ourselves or what we see/witness with our own eyes. She always has to be audacious and speak healing before she ever witnesses it.

A woman, blind from birth and just a few weeks shy of her 90th birthday, receives her sight!

"For the first time in her life, this octogenarian was able to see. This is the glory of Jesus touching lives the same today as He was 2,000 years ago. We were able to capture the end of this awesome healing on video. Remarkably, Bonnie and I were scheduled to host the Atlanta Live television program the following evening. The assistant producer of the program was at our All Nations Church Atlanta service and a witness of this wonderful miracle...We will be hosting the two hour broadcast of Atlanta Live again on June 5th, 2007...Join us in the Atlanta area on Channel WATC 57 from 7pm to 9pm, or on Directv Channel 378 on June 6th at 8 am."

"My right eye had been knocked out of its socket. It was put back in place, but nerve damage had been done. My family was informed that, if I survived, a glass eye would be put in at a later date...My neck and eye were healed...I was still considered brain-dead, but miracles were happening. God was answering prayers because people were believing."

SCRIPTURE

Tobit 11:7-8 NAB 7(The angel) Raphael said to Tobiah before he reached his father, "I am certain that his eyes will be opened. 8Smear the fish gall on them. This medicine will make the cataracts shrink and peel off from his eyes; then our father will again be able to see the light of day."

Matthew 12:22 NIV They brought Him a demon-possessed (demonized) man who was blind and mute, and Jesus healed Him, so that he could both talk and see.

John 9:2-3 NIV - His disciples asked Him (Jesus), "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus answered, "Neither he nor his parents sinned; it is so that the works of God might be made visible through him."

Acts 13:8-12 8Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 9Paul, filled with the Holy spirit, looked straight at Elymas 10and said, "You are a child of the devil, an enemy of everything that is right!...The hand of the Lord is against you (Elymas). You are going to be blind; for a time you will be unable to see the light of the sun."

“Patrick Henry Hughes was born with a rare genetic disorder that left him without eyes and physically disabled. But he was also blessed with exceptional musical talent—able to play the piano as a toddler and ...at age 19, a nationally known pianist, singer, and trumpeter who has performed at the Grand Ole Opry and the Kennedy Center. Currently he’s a member of his college marching band, playing while his devoted father pushes him in his wheelchair...Now, for the first time, Hughes and his father share the full account of his extraordinary journey. In I Am Potential, Hughes recounts the 8 critical lessons he has learned that are at the heart of his success, including When Life Gives You Lemons, Accept Them and Be Grateful and Do All You Can to Change What You Can.”

- cool theme of being "blessed" by God with a special needs child - However, the bottom line is that in most cases, the root cause of family "curses" is one or more demons, unforgiven/unconfessed ancestral/family iniquity/sin, and/or unbroken evil spells/ proclamations by/from occult practitioners.
