The question that William Molyneux posed to the philosophical community in 1688 (the sensory abilities of a blind man who suddenly acquires the vision) had wide resonance for the philosophical analysis of the subject of perception. This question fueled the discussion among various philosophers, leading them to take different positions, as I am interested in showing here. In this paper I study the role of the blind person who acquires vision according to the berkeleian version, which translates the character of experimental psychology and epistemology, to the metaphysician. In turn, Berkeley warns of the great heuristic wealth of the character and takes advantage of it in his An Essay Toward a New Theory of Vision. As it can be seen Molyneux’s question was fundamental for the development of berkeleian thought.
