Want this question answered?
Braille was invented in 1821, though probably not in one day. Louis Braille was twelve years old when he invented the system, though it was not widely accepted at the time. The Braille system became the official reading and writing method of the National Institute for Blind Youth only six months after Louis Braille's death in 1852.
Louis Braille is dead
Louis Braille was 17 years old when he published his first braille book in 1829.
The one that is used today was invented by Louis Braille, who was only 13 years old when he invented it. There were other attempts at inventing such an alphabet before he invented his, but they were not very practical.

something
He was born 4th January 1809. So would have been 205 years old last January 2014.
Louis was blind at the age of 3 not very old and he died at the age of 43 not old.
Louis Braille's dad was a saddle and harness maker in the village of Coupvray (in Paris) and Louis loved to watch him and that was the place where he first got blind from an accident with an awl ( one of his fathers tools that he wasn't supposed to touch) it punctured his eye and infected his other eye this could not be cured back then so he was blind when he was 4 years old hope that answers your question and i know all this because my class just finished reading Out of Darkness the story of Louis Braille.
