I took a tour of a cave once and while we were in the heart of the cave, they turned the lights off. It was pitch black. There was no adjusting to the dark that goes on when one turns off the lights at night - no moon or streelights or passing cars that barely illuminate things. It was pretty unnerving. I can't imagine losing my sight.
