From Old Testament times, the Jewish people knew that only God and his Messiah could open the eyes of the blind. However, over their long history, it had never happened. Therefore, when Jesus healed the eyes of a man born blind in John 9:1-41, he caused quite a stir.

This is the same testimony of the simplest Christian whose spiritual eyes Jesus has opened to the truth. (sermon notes)
