New research proves it wrong that the loss of one sense may sharpen other senses. A new study from the University of Montreal found that blind people have no sharper sense of smell than the sighted. The loss of sight simply makes blind people pay more attention to how they sense smells, the researchers said.

“If you enter a room in which coffee is boiling, you will quickly look for the coffee machine. However, for a blind person, he or she will only have the smell of coffee as information,” said a researcher, Mathilde Beaulieu-Lefebvre.

“There is a saying that blind people have better smell than the sighted. We are proving it wrong,” said Maurice Ptito, a professor at the University of Montreal. “However, the blind do set themselves apart as they are somewhat better than the sighted at deciding what direction a sound is coming from.”

It is further found that the blind use a certain part of the brain more than the sighted when they smell. They also use the part which is normally used for sight. “That’s interesting because it means that part of the brain is reorganized and used in a new way,” said Ptito.

The research on the sense of smell could lead to new applications that are likely to help guide blind people in their surroundings.
