Nunez was never able to convince them that he had the ability to see.
They were so much adapted to their sightlessness that they were able to do things which he could not such as hear very faith sounds, perceive the faintest odours. To compensate for their lack of sight, their other senses (touch, hearing etc) were advanced beyond Nunez's capabilities.

Cheers!
