| Geordi LaForge was born blind, given sight by Riker ("Hide and Q") which he decided he didn't want, and decided against a sight operation by Dr. Pulaski in "Loud As A Whisper". Both his parents are in Starfleet; his father is an exo-biologist and his mother is a command officer ("Imaginary Friend"). He was promoted majorly between seasons one and two when he was made Chief Engineer (during the first season they had multiple Chief Engineers). He resides on Deck 2, in room 2471. |
