Correct Answer

B

Explanation

This question is a classic riddle or logic puzzle that plays on the interpretation of words. The answer is none of the children would be blind like their father because if the man is blind, he cannot have biological children. Similarly, the fact that the woman is one-eyed is also a play on words and doesn't have any biological implications for the children.So, the solution is none of the children would be blind like their father because the premise of the question is not based on biological reality.
